Hi guys. My Jumper Ezbook 3 Pro died. It does not respond to the power button, the lights that indicate that the computer is turned on do not illuminate in any case. Only the side-loading lamp works which lights up when connected to the charger in green. I turned on the laptop and disconnected the batteries, but it did not help. It happened so, the computer was in EFI Shell, I went out with the command “exit”, the Jumper logo appeared and Windows 10 was launched. I clicked the power button, under which the system hibernation was set. After switching to hibernation mode, the lights started to flash / blink. After that I held down the power button for a few seconds and the computer no longer responded. He died.
April 3, 2018 at 12:24 pm #141461Welcome to the long line of dead Jumpers you will find here.
We hold memorial services weekly.
Sometimes it helps to put a big hammer next to the Jumper. open it up, disconnect the battery for the day tell him if he does not boot the hammer awaits him.
Next day plug in battery, plug in power, turn on.
Use hammer at your discretion.

1981 soldered my first Sinclair computer 1K, tapedeck * 1984 build and sold IBM clones 8Mhz, 512K, 20MB HDD * 2018 messing with ultrabooksApril 3, 2018 at 1:38 pm #141462Did you mess with BIOS? It comes with a generic bios so you must not touch any settings.
To reset bios, remove batteries, wait for 1 hour, press power button a few times, then reinsert batteries
April 3, 2018 at 8:15 pm #141491Do you think that this is a BIOS problem? The computer does not start up or respond to anything except the charging light on the side of the housing when the cable is connected. I removed the batteries for 15-20 minutes but nothing helped. I have seen posts before, that there is no image displayed, but the computer was on and the computer’s light was on, and nothing at all. It does not react to anything except the landing lights.

I do not know how this happened. On Wednesday I unplugged the batteries and on Thursday I plugged in but it still did not work. Today it still did not work, but after knocking it down from the bottom it suddenly turned on. As it happened, I do not know. Maybe you have any ideas?

Only one thing to do, open carefully and start wiggling cable by cable and see when it turns off again. might be a contact problem I would carefully and with a magnifying glass check the way from the plug to the battery and then check the keyboard cable, because this is where you on off switch is.
Mine is only an on switch, after the 2nd time pressing delete and hitting power off I disabled it in the power settings.

I have a completely new Jumper EZBook 3 and managed to power it on once or twice already, but now it doesnt work again. I press on-button and just blue light blinks for a second. Any ideas how to get it running?
May 24, 2018 at 9:24 am #143272- if it is new, talk to the dealer, shoot a video of the not working pc and ask for a solution.
- If it is new and you did not mess with it, it might be a defective unit, send it back.
- open up, disconnect all cables and then carefully reconnect.
- blame chris for showing you working unit in his test and yours behaves not the same way
- blame yourself for not checking the forum before buying and noticing that the new jumpers are having a ton of problems. (see my post about stop buying jumpers (link below)
I would go with 1-2 first and then if no sticker blocks the screws with option 3
jumper has changed the 3 pro 7 times in less than a year while the 3s what works well is still unchanged

thanks for your reply. I did not mess with the laptop, in fact I didnt do anything with it so far, not even installed Skype or something. Was in contact with Gearbest already, they only could offer me to send it back to China or Spain on my own shipping costs (not that cheap). There is no sticker on the back, but I dont really wanna touch the inside parts and/or cables. I will try to get some help at a computer repairshop back in Austria. Do you have any idea what might be the standard cause of these problems? Really just weak cablework, or a defective power unit or so?
Regards, Jango
May 28, 2018 at 11:07 am #143388no, but Jumper quality is getting really bad now.
they are dropping like flies.
Send back try Teclast maybe it is better.
if you used paypal with gearbest the you get some money for return shipping from paypal.Need Help?
