Try re-seating the memory

If you have two DIMMs try using one at a time and in each slot.

it kind of leaves you with two aras

GPU or Motherboard

Have you tried an external monitor ?

Try booting up with a base config

no Drives, one memory DIMM, no wireless cards, no battery
Swap Memory positon and try again.

Try above with no AC, just the battery
