    Acer Aspire what? Model number might be useful (if it's a known problem with this model or for other users of the same unit to chime in)

    I renamed the thread to make the title more informative.

    It's possible that the laptop could be in a power state preventing it from booting properly. Try disconnecting the power cable and remove the battery from the laptop. Once done, leave both disconnected from the computer for at least a minute. After a minute put the battery back in the computer, connect the power cable, and try turning the computer on again.
