Hi.

My desktop is Acer Desktop tc-780-acki3, and few hours ago I formatted the pc to clean up HDD, starts refresh.

After pressed format button the pc doesn't turn on. I've been waiting almost 3 hours but monitor blacked out, except makes sounds functioning from desktop. 

Any solutions?

    If the issue is not resolved, i would suggest you to re-connect the cables and check if not check with a diff monitor.

    Connect the mini-tower to your TV.  If the TV is a blank screen, the desktop monitor may have failed.  If under warranty, enlist help from Acer.  If beyond warranty period, borrow a friend's desktop monitor to verify that yours failed.  Further troubleshooting. Contact your Acer Center if troubleshooting stalls.
