    Hi, just today i activated the hibernate option on my fl90 with vista x64 and i hibernated it on battery. Now i can't turn it on. The thing is lifeless no sounds(disk, fans), no lights, nothing. I've tried taking the battery off for more than two hours, tried booting with ac only, ac+bat, bat only and i can't turn it back on. I think my bios was 1.10 and i just recently installed the 163.75 drivers from laptopvideo2go. Can anyone help me.

    Unplug the battery, then unplug the AC power.
    Wait for 10 seconds, then plug AC power back in.
    Power on the notebook.

    Plug AC power cord (No battery), make sure that your AC adapter has power coming through.
    Press Power, see if LED lit up or not. Press Power and hold it for 5 seconds.
    And try again.

    Something is very wrong here.
    Are you able to take it to a shop and have someone to check for you?
    Otherwise you may have to file a RMA to return it.
