Car won't start - Nothing

I had to boost my car just before Xmas and went away for 2 weeks. Came back today and try to start the car and nothing - no engine lights, no starter clicking, nothing. I am assuming I need to replace the battery. Should I try to boost or is it past that? Is replacing the stock battery easy? Thks.

How old was your battery? This happens alot in my Ford Expedition , the battery will die if I do not use it for a few weeks.. A battery with a good charge shouldn't die in less then 2 weeks, even if the vehicle is not used. Depending on how old the battery is, it might be time to replace it. ... If you continue to have the same problems, look into getting your alternator checked. O.o, one more thing, If you have any electrical goodies hooked up (crazy sound systems,carputer, etc.. ) look into voltage regulators to keep your battery properly charged, and double check your wiring. if your goodies are not wired correctly, they could be draining you when your car is off. Keep in mind, just because it works, doesn't mean it's connected correctly.

di the remote locking work so you could get into the car? it might be something as silly as a badly connected battery cable.
