Today I tried to boot up my Aspire One D150 (KAV10) and the power LED came on, the fan spun for about 3 seconds, and the HDD light started flashing but the screen did nothing. No BIOS or POST. The battery LED is green also.
After searching the internet I have come across these instructions http://eric.chromick.com/aa1/aspire-one-black-screen-of-death/#axzz2HWxyJ2Te I tried and it didn't work. The power LED doesn't flash like it says it's supposed to. I am using a MicroSD to USB adapter with a 4gb MicroSD (It's the only thing small enough to format to FAT instead of FAT32). I have downloaded the BIOS from the support site and renamed the KAV10.fd file to zg5ia32.fd and I'm fairly certain that I'm not doing anything wrong. I have tried with the MicroSD-usb adapter, I have tried putting it into a normal size SD adapter into the card slot, and I have also tried putting it into the normal size SD adapter and then into a USB SD card reader. None of these things work. I have also tried all of the USB ports for the two USB methods. I cannot seem to find anybody else on the internet who is having troubles with this process. Help would be much appreciated!
