Hi,
Yester night, i put my acer ferrari 3400 into hibernation mode. Today, when i try to start up, the hdd and fan comes on, but LCD is blank (black). The caps lock and numlock leds are on, and power led is blinking orange and green. The wifi led is also lit. I am also not able to turn off caps and num lock leds using the keyboard. Please advise.
Thanks,
Eric
I have the same notebook and exactly the same problem.
Does anybody know a solution or at least what's the cause of the problem?
If applying thermal grease fixes this problem, how do you do it? And can you use anythhing eles instead of this?
heov,
so you applied thermal grease to the cpu? isn't it soldered in place? also, was the grease the cause of the problem, or is it memory sticks or mobo?

Applying new thermal paste doesn't sound like the answer. Have you tried a cooling pad on it (if overheating is even the issue)?

Have new Aspire 9500 - similar problem - forgot to plug in AC adaptor, so it ran down the battery. If the power LED isn't green, it suggests a battery problem. Try booting from a CD (hit F2/F12 on startup) to change startup options

the thing is the screen stays black, so i can't do anything. The power light blinks yellow even with the battery out and the AC Adaptor plugged in. :(

Just off the top of my head, have you tried another battery? Are you sure nothing's loading? Plug in another monitor if you have a video-out port.
