    Ok here's the deal. I managed to break the old LCD on my acer (about 2 months old), got myself a replacement LCD off ebay. (much cheaper than Acer cost)

    Installed it. Looked fine , but when I try to turn the machine on, get nothing. No power read out at all. Battery doesn't connect, even the power on switch doesn't light up green. Even the wee lights in the corner don't come on to say the mains is connected. ANy ideas out there what's gone wrong (and how to fix it?)
    Thanks!

    not sure if this helps or not, but try having the AC cable plugged in, check to see if the charging light comes on as yellow or green. if yellow, wait a couple of minutes, the turn the computer on, if green, not sure. I had an issue on just battery power, had plugged in AC cable, went to sleep mode, would not boot up, had left AC cable unplugged.
