    Hey guys I just received my ASUS UL80 and when I press the power button I can hear the fan turn on and some LEDs go on but nothing on the screen. Any ideas? Just a perfectly black screen.

    if the usual suggestions of try without battery/AC, try an external monitor or reseat the RAM didn't work, it's probably DoA.
