    Nothing? No fan, no LED lights? Sounds like your lappy is DOA. Anything happen the last time it worked? A puff of smoke or a burning smell? Could be a bad power on button. Before giving your computer its last rites, try this:

    Remove the large back cover and remove the ram,under the ram you should see terminal labelled "J3" on the PCB, short this out with a screw driver for a few seconds. Then reinstall the ram and power the laptop back up.

    Another tip would be to remove the battery and AC power, then hold down the power button for 30 secs. Then try to boot again with the power connected. This has helped me on other Acers before.

    Good Luck
