Hey S R,
I had the exact same problem myself. Was in class at my college, and slid it into my backpack and headed off to work. By the time I got there, it wouldn't do anything other than the brief vibrate at the beginning, and then nothing else. I fortunately could tell the computer was on because I have google remote connect, and could control it from there.
Long story short, I had to send it in to be repaired by ASUS. Apparently the LCD connector either disconnected somehow, or it had to be flat out replaced. You can however, if you don't have remote connect, try to hook up and external monitor and use the keyboard to send video to the ext. monitor.
That would tell you what your next step should be. (I realize your question is half a year old.. but someone else might be able to see and use this answer!)
