I have an acer aspire one 532h 2db, i have just rebooted it and its a black screen, it has windows 7 installed, only had it a month,

The blue power button comes on and i can hear the fan but nothing on the screen

Even pressing F2 does nothing, can anyone help me please?

Thanks

    Start by pressing F8 when the computer first turns on. Then try to select safe mode. If that works then do a scan disk and restart. If that doesn't work or doesn't fix the problem, then start with F8 again and disable the restart.
