    Hi, i had shut down my one for the night and went to turn it back on in the morning and nothing. Power was on led light was green but, nothing. I thought it may have been the cmos battery but, it isn't. Tried switching the cmos battery for a new one didn't work. Tried to increase and toggle screen but, didn't work. I didn't upgrade the ram. Tried leaving battery and cmos battery out for 5 minutes. Any idea what this problem would be? Any help would be apriciated. Thanks.

    Thanks! reflashed the BIOS and it worked! I used macles technique and it worked. I used the bios 3304 though from via acer web site. I wanted to use 3305 but, i used 3304 and copy and paste the bios file name to the bios 3304 file and flased it. Thanks.
