    Pressing power switch makes Power Indicator flash orange or with orange and green. Nothing on display. Same with AC or battery. Have been using it through EasyportIII. It is 15 months old. Had a problem in warranty. Acer Service said reinsert battery which worked. Had odd repeats of this or getting to Acer screen but not Setup or Go back and reinstalled Windows over Xmas. This time dead (having been ok 6 hours before). Is it a hardware problem? Back to base? Or is there a reset button somewhere? Is it a known problem? Last back up was pre Xmas! HELP!!
