    Hi and thanks for the reply, tomorrow I'm gonna take it to a technician to have it checked. I'm really hoping that it's not the board or the CPU cause it's gonna cost me a lot..

I guess I can assume that you have it plugged into the ac power, so you know its not a power problem. We also know its not a problem with the power switch since the light turns on. So that leaves, motherboard, cpu, and ram possible problems. Ram would unlikely cause such a hault. Even with no ram, I believe the computer would make horrible beeping noises. So if its a problem with the motherboard or cpu, its pretty much trash, unless you want to waste the money on ebay or some place for another cpu to try to swap.

You'll need to select a wifi network to connect to. Also, bluetooth doesn't work that way, bluetooth is used to connect 2 devices to share files, it does NOT give you access to the internet

I just want to know to turn on my TravelMate Laptop computer. I want to where the start button is? Simply as that.

You will find a key that has C facing upwards with an I in it. This is the power on switch.press it lightly. Three LEDs will turn green for a moment and then some more LEDs with start blinking. And finally you will get the Windows desk top.

Acer travelmate 2350 wont boot or display

I have seen this on several ACER Laptops. It is always the Motherboard. Contact Acer repairs and order a new motherboard. IT will likely be about $200ish dollars. Then follow one of the guides on the web for taking your laptop apart and replace the board.
