AcerPower f5 won t boot Power comes on but no bios. I thought it might be memory so I changed it and the same problem.
You either have a bad processor or a bad mainboard, most likely its the mainboard.
You definitely have a hardware issue so you need to go through a process of elimination to figure out what it is.
1) try another video card (if you are using a video card)
2) try your on-board video (if you have it)
3) take a look at your motherboard to see if any capacitors look bulged
4) try another power supply (although the computer is getting power, it might not be getting "good" power)
Usually if it is the memory you will at least get a beep. This sounds like it is probably your mobo if it isn't your video card.

There are no error messages and not beeps. The fans come on then seem to slow down but nothing on the screen at all
The fans stay on but there is nothing on the screen. I also tried a new battery but no help.
there is no faint image using a flashlight
Ok if you have one try another monitor and let me know the results
Shine a flashlight on the screen is there a faint image?
Do you see anything on your screen at all? Do you hear system fans running?
Does the machine stay on and does the fan stop?
What exactly happens when you try to boot?
Is there an error message on the screen?
