Guys,
I think my system may be fubar'd, I installed Lucid Beta a few days ago and was happy with the way everything worked.
The system wanted an update on Thursday night, I installed it and then carried on using it for about an hour, it was then shutdown normally with no errors.
On Friday morning it would not boot. I pressed the "on" button it came on, all the other lamps lit ie Caps and Num Lock, the battery light is on anyway, but the hard drive light is not flashing, it's as though it isn't being accessed, but I can hear it????
There is no display on the screen.
It just sits there looking forlorn.
I'm running an Acer Aspire One
Is there anything I can do to check what is wrong.
My initial thoughts are bios related, but I can't see how that would have changed, then I think maybe the Harddrive is knackered.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. as I could do with the e'mail data from the system.
