    Hi!!

    @MistaJay96  

    Very common work around, "Power Drain" or "Power Cycle Reset" process can be tried in your case. TO do that; 

    1. Disconnect all cables from your computer and make it stand alone. 
    2. Ensuring that all cables are disconnected, including power cable... Just press & hold the power button of your computer for 30 seconds. 
    3. After 30 seconds, release the power button and reconnect all cables back. 
    4. Power on your computer and check for display. 

    NOTE: You can try the same procedure in your monitor also.

    Thats the first thing i tried. Also went threw a few other trick that i read up on. And did everything they said. Like reseating all internal hardware. Now after that. Its getting no power at all. Nothing. Its like it completely died. And i made sure everything went right back where it was suppose to.

    There are typically a couple of things that give those symptoms. By far the most often. it's an issue with the display. Either a bad monitor, a bad cable, the wrong input selected or the wrong video port on the computer selected (note that most Acers disable the ports on the motherboard when a graphics card is installed). Next most common is a failed graphics card, often you can test that by removing it and booting from the motherboard port. Finally is a failed computer. That could be the power supply (does it's fan start spinning when you turn it on?), the power switch (there are adapters you can use to bypass the switch for testing) or the motherboard (typically a failing motherboard will give you a diagnostic beep code). Let us know if any of that helps pin it down.
