Dead Acer Aspire 5542G (MS2277) Laptop - Recovery

[DangItBroke]

Hi having a issue with my Acer laptop
 
Laptop was working.  Power it down and then restarted a week later with the following symptoms

• Power light turns on
  
• Blank Screen
  
• Fan spins up then slows down
  

Was thinking it may be a bios issue.  Did some searching to fix and have creating a crisis boot usb with the the following steps

1. Downloaded Acer bios, and Crisis  software (references a Lenovo Machine )
   
2. Copied bios to BIOS.WPH
   
3. Ran Crisis 1.0.0.4  to prep a 256MB USB stick
   
4. Pulled battery, and unplugged A/C adapter
   
5. Plugged in Crisis USB stick (tried all 4 USB ports with same results)
   
6. Held down "FN + ESCAPE + power button"
   
7. Plug in Power
   
8. Still while holding "FN + ESCAPE" tapped power button
   
9. Machine Powered on and power button light started blinked on/off.  Usb stick blinked once
   
10. Nothing after this other that the power light keeps blanking on/off
    

So stuck at this point

Questions

1. Should I be able to recover the bios (I read somewhere that I could only recover the bios if there was something displayed on screen)
   
2. How do I confirm that I'm in bios recovery mode?  Is the power button flashing an indication that I'm in bios recover mode?
   
3. I couldn't locate the Acer version of crisis.  Could this be a issue?
   
4. I was expecting, if the crisis usb boot stick was working, that there would be a bit of USB activity (Other than the single flash I get).  Should the USB have activity for a bit at the start? 
   
5. Has anyone successfully recovered a Acer Aspire 5542G?   Are any of my above steps incorrect? Got any pointers, or a download link for the acer crisis software (if the lenovo version is the issue
   

Thanks in advance for any assistance or insight!
