    I've had my W3V for a little more than a month and its starting to give me problems with the power button. In the morning after it's been off all night it takes like 20 tries to get it to turn on, after that the power button responds instantly. Any ideas or do I have to send this thing in for repairs?

    Most likely you'll have to send it in. As for the 20 tries, does that mean it's starts up the fan and shut off or just have to press it 20 times in order to start?

    The light and the fan don't come on.

    Yeah, just call your ASUS or your reseller- they might help you with the RMA process.
