There could be quite a few problems, but this could also be a fairly simple fix.  I would first try to just unplug the whole darn thing, wait about 30 seconds, and then plug it in again and try to start it.  Seeing as you have internet access, I would also try going to this website: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=bph07173&lc=en&cc=us&rule=14694&dlc=&product=396431.  That hopefully will help. =)  Good luck!

Take it to your local high street computer shop, that is if they do repairs.. they will charge you a small fee for diagnosing the problem but this will usually be refunded if you let them do the repairs, once you know what's wrong and how much it will cost to put right you will be in a much better position to work out whether you'll be better off scrapping it and getting a new one or having your old one repaired

Hate to even ask this...but you might want to check that the laptop has a hard drive in it. I've seen a couple people send in their laptops because they were still under warranty and the company "forgot" to put the hard drive back in it.\n\nTry to enter the BIOS when you turn on the laptop. (the exact key to press can be found in my first source link)\n\nYou should be looking for something similar to this:\nhttp://www.paul.sladen.org/lights-out/screenshots-original/bios-date-time.png\n\nMake sure that it recognizes a hard drive in there.\n\nIf it doesn't, then the hard drive may have crashed and will need to be replaced.\n\nIf you have any other questions, feel free to message me.

You have probably have done this have you check to see if you have the latest bios. Also see if HP has anything on there website.  You are move advance then most of the people here the only thing I can do to help you out is bounce ideas off of you.  I don't have my network doing a network boot or anything like that.  I have some frineds that use centrix but they have a OS on the systems.  Good luck if you need to bounce idea off of someone imz me.

Tom,\n You should go to the computer maunfacturer's website (hp.com, ibm.com, etc.) and search for your computer's model number. Under the downloads section, you will find a BIOS flash. Write down the version from the website, restart your computer, and get into the BIOS (usually hit F2, some are F8 or Del). That will tell you if you have the latest BIOS or not, matching the written down one with the one the computer says it has. Go back to the website and download/apply the BIOS flash as needed.\nCheers.

Unplug everything, replug it all back in.   Did you install the drivers properly?\n\nHP is the way to go next time.

Its called a flash. TO flash the Bios. Theres software to do it. Check with your motherboards manufacture.

unplug it and plug it in again.  if this doesn't work, you may need a new power supply.  if you do need to purchase something, antec is good.

Try turning on the monitor, see if it is plugged in right.  If none of that works don't hit it with a sludge hammer, bring it into a computer store.

Is there *absolutely* no power? No orange light even? Maybe the power outlet you're connecting it to is faulty.\n\nIf you're getting the orange light, it might be a video card problem.\n\n==============================================\nI hope you see this, because I couldn't email you because your ID isn't confirmed.\n---------------------------------------\nRe: No Power TO HD Monitor\n\nAh, i didn't read your question properly.\n\nCheck the power pins on you old monitor. The place where you plug in the power cable on your monitor.They might be covered in black sooty material if something blew up. \n\nOr maybe the fuse inside the monitor is blown. If you can open it up and check that out, and that IS the problem, you can get it fixed for a few $s. For less if you have the equipment and know how to solder.

Sounds like your CMOS battery may have failed.\n\ntry replacing it.\n\n///

Ooooooooh \ntack it easy...\n 1) first make sure that every thing is fixed correctly and if necessary re-assemble the PC.\n 2) reset the BIOS (remove battery or by jumpier)\n 3) finally Chick the power supply (SMPS) connections or change it.\n\nGOOD LUCK

it cannot be the power supple or it would say that there is low power voltage and to  press F1 to continue to Windows. YOu should reinstall you hard drive with the reboting Cds that you should have gotten with your computer. Yopu will lose all your files. But it will probably work. If it dont then you should buy new IDE cables.    Fixing a motherboard should be your next  2 second thing to do.

take your laptop to the service center as this should not happend maybe the battries arnt proper or maybe theres a problem with the laptop itself

There is obviously a short circuit somewhere inside the laptop. If it is that new, send it in for repair.

check the power cord to see if there is a break if not then it most likely dead try and take it to computer shop and see what they say you can get a new one if they say it dead
