Solution
Create a recovery USB drive to update the Bios on the unit. The specific steps to perform this recovery with the USB drive are:
A. Plug the AC Adapter into the unit.
B. Insert the USB flash drive into a USB port.
C. Press and Hold down the Fn and the Esc keys together.
D. Keep these keys held down and press power.
E. When the unit's power light comes on release the Fn and Esc keys.
F. After the keys have been released the power light will start to blink.
G. Let the unit run and after approximately 1-7 minutes, the unit should reboot.
H. Video should now be restored.
Hi, after turning it on, hold the power button down for 60 seconds this should reset the unit. hope the display is ok! i hope this helps you out! good luck!

I have an ACER Aspire. Try the battery. Had same type of problem. If you have AC adapter try taking the battery out and plug into adapter only. If it comes up replace the battery. If notyou probably did fry the board.

Hi there.
Try taking the battery out and booting it on AC power only, if it boots up turn it back off and reinsert the battery, turn the computer on, if it boots up all good, if not please post back.
Good luck

The Acer Aspire One has a built-in BIOS recovery routine, which can boot
into a minimal BIOS environment via a special boot block to re-flash
the BIOS, even if the system does not pass POST and does otherwise not
boot anymore. This is also known as crisis disk mode.
First format an USB flash drive with FAT. It does not need to be
bootable.
Download the latest
BIOS, and extract all files from the zip file. Put both FLASHIT.EXE and
the BIOS file with FD suffix in the root directory of the flash drive.
The files must not be in a folder. Rename the BIOS file to ZG5IA32.FD
before proceeding. It only works with this exact filename.
Turn the AA1 off, with the flash drive still connected, and make sure
both battery and AC adapter are also connected.
Press Fn and Esc simultaneously, keep them pressed and
press the power button. Release Fn+Esc after a few seconds. The power
button starts blinking at this point. Press the power button once. The
AA1 will now initiate flashing the BIOS. After a while the button stops
blinking, and the AA1 reboots shortly after. Wait patiently.
If it doesn't reboot by itself, but keeps blinking, wait at least a few
minutes before turning it off, and try again.

i have same prob 2
but dint find any clue bout it
I turn on my Aspire, it just make a noice but doesnt turn on. Display is black. Lights CAPS and NUM doesnt work.
I am experiencing the same problem
me too.
Computer powers up, fan starts up. Charge light and power light is on but display is absolutely black
I tried that, it made a "pewww' noise, then I tried again, and it still was black... how am I supposed to update something when i can't see the screen?!?!
I have the same problem myself aswell. If the system itself doesn't turn on how can we update the BIOS?
I have reseated every removable part on the laptop which doesn't viod the warranty. Tried power cycles and am fed up now.
I think this problem has become a common one now. all of us has the same same problem during the same time frame or 3 or 4 days.
could it not be that acer has done something to block the usage of certain products after a certain period of time?
I have exactly the same problem.
my aspire one does not boot,the screen is dark when i turn it on.
