Laptop will not boot, Sony Vaio VGN CR220E, lights come on, don't hear the Hard drive start up, however. I get the clunks from the CD drive, but that's all.

- The computer turns on, but neither the monitor, nor the hard drive kick on. I think it may be a hardware problem. I've tried connecting another monitor to no avail. It seems like my hard drive has failed, but i have no way to tell, nor do i know how to fix it. My caps lock, num lock and scroll lock leds blink and go out, it doesn't beep, just clunks and stays in what appears to be sleep mode with no noise from the hard drive.
Hi, Such problems happen when you have either faulty RAM or faulty Mother Board. Repairing MotherBoard Chip is a costly affair but replacing RAM is convenient and most probable solution.
I need you to try a few things.First remove the battery,memory no power whatsoever.Press and hold the power button for twenty seconds.Replace the memory then the ac cord and try again.Remove the power only this time and press and hold the power button again.Now replace the battery and the power adapter.Power up and you should work if not you will need to replace the motherboard.
Good Luck
