Have you tried taking out the battery and turning it on while it's plugged in?
Did you drop it recently? Do you see the BIOS screen before boot failure, or nothing happens at all?

Half-joking aside: Not sure how to deal with the laptop itself, not too good with that stuff. BUT it's usually easy to save the data if you have a desktop computer available.
The hard disks are usually easy to access by unscrewing a couple of screws on the bottom. If you take it out, and insert it into a desktop as a regular hard disk, you can save everything to some external hard disk or something
(I've had to deal with a lot of Acer laptops... they always fail. plastic breaks even when treated carefully, hard disks fail, RAM breaks, DVD drives fail, USB ports fail..... Never touching an Acer again.)
5. but i hear some fan stil work inside...Does it beep certain number of times?

pretty cool little video. You can try to do it yourself but it looks really tricky. There are some application to try to do some of it.If it was a Dell, I can see it having issues As far as data recovery, it can be tricky to do without spending a lot of money, no?

Data recovery CAN be tricky depending on the issue.If it was a Dell, I can see it having issues As far as data recovery, it can be tricky to do without spending a lot of money, no?

In this case, when the problem most likely is unrelated to the HDD (or SSD), you can just plug the disk into another (desktop) computer. OR buy some usb cable and adapter to use it as an external drive.
If the HDD is failing, and it has NTFS formatting, there are some tools you can get somewhere (not free, unless you look at the right places). I highly recommend "GetDataBack for NTFS", which let you access a failed HDD and get files, and save them to somewhere. Most often it's some bits and bytes that are corrupted in the boot sector, that prevents it from being read.
If it's physically broken though, you need professional help, which is expensive. You should never attempt to open an HDD yourself if you don't want to risk losing the data.
This is a bit off topic though.
