MB, three months old. Appears dead. Blue light in front is "on," but screen is black and apple icon light on lid is unlit. Green power cord light is on. Will not turn on, or wake up. Screen just black and blank. Fan not on, and bottom not hot. Have tried various key combos and on button to no avail.

Is it dead? I will take in to Apple tomorrow if it does not return to life tonight. Any ideas? Your help is appreciated. Thank you.

Have you tried taking out the battery? That would force it to shut down. Then you could try restarting.

just press the start button for a minute it will force to shutdown

or else remove the battery it will also do the same thing

then put your Leopard disk and press C button it will go to maintenance page , if you got it to that stage then you can do what ever you want
