    This just happened to me today. I got this from another thread, it doesn't apply to the aspire 5734z but it worked all the same for me. sorry if its too late. good luck

    Hi Ben,
    yes I fixed it thanks. I had caused the ram to malfunction, by continually letting my battery power run too low. You need to take out the ram then put it back and start up using AC power. Use a start up disc if you have to, to get it to boot up. Then use the computer only on the AC for a couple of times. Turn off when you are using battery power and it starts to run low, as this is what caused my problem. Now my acer 270 is working perfectly (maybe I should touch wood after saying that)
    Anyhow, it was definately a ram problem, you may need a new ram if its still faulty.
