acer aspire one won't power up!
have the same problem with mine. I was copying files from an external dvd drive to my hard drive when my acer one hybernated. after hybernating, it won't boot, wont even post. nothing on the screen and only the green light lights up.
Running stock WINXP OS BTW. I have been using the laptop about 3 months now before this happened.

Then, about twenty minutes ago, I opened it and pressed the power button. It made the whirring sound it usually makes, and the green power indicator lit up, but... the screen remained black. I tried to shut it off manually, but it wouldn't power down. Finally, I unplugged it and pulled the battery. It will seem to power up, but nothing happens. What's going on?
