I have a Compaq nx6115 laptop.  When I press the power button, the fan
whirs for about a second, and the hard drive access light comes on.
Then it cuts out (fan shuts down) and then this is repeated about
fifteen times.  Eventually it stops doing this and the fan stays on,
but no hard drive activity and nothing ever shows on the screen.  It
kind of acts "brain dead"...the wireless light doesn't come on, caps
lock doesn't light up, etc.
