Ok I was playing Splintercell and it locked up on me. I held in the power button and it then flashed to the winxp going into standby then powered off. Well now when I go to power it on the cdroms hds ect spin up fans come on.. all the keyboard lock keys are lit and the hd led lights up and goes off after a minute but no video. I hooked a CRT to it but it never comes up either. I took the battery out and unplugged the unit and powered it on to discharge it and let it sit for 15 minutes tried to plug it in and power it on and still no video. Anyone have an idea? It doesn't beep or do anything else and just sits there no bios screen ever comes up nothing.

I pulled out the keyboard ram and bios battery and then powered it on after 5 minutes and it came up finally with bios error. Powered it off reinstalled everything. Then powered it on. Came up with bios checksum error went to bios setup reset to factory defaults and rebooted and now all is well.
I guess my only question is WTF happened? I'm still scratching my head on it..
