When I hit the power button, the LEDs come on and the CD drive lights up momentarily, but there is nothing on the screen. No BIOS no nothing. No hard drive activity. I've tried pressing down on the video card and wiggling it, but nothing happens. The LCD flashes quickly (no image, just backlight) when I power it off so I'm guessing it's not a dead screen. Can anyone tell me if this is a bad motherboard or video card or CMOS battery? Any help greatly appreciated!
