I had the same problem. I used a different power cord (not the adapter, the three-prong cord that goes from the wall outlet to the adapter) and it booted up just fine. The battery on mine is dead as well, but it may be possible to repair it (more info here as well). Let me know if you're able to repair yours or if you can get it to power on as well.

First you would try the least expensive
make sure your ac adpater works
the plug could be bad on the end
next is the pin inside the dc jack where you plug it in, if the pin moves just a little , you may need a new dc jack sold on ebay cheap
make sure the battery is out when testing

There isn't one, either take the laptop apart and remove the CMOS battery for 10 seconds or download and burn hiren 15 to a CD and use one of the CMOS password wipers.
Compare your laptop voltage & ampere requirements
(written on a sticker on the bottom of the laptop) with the voltage
& ampere ratings of the power adapter. Voltages should be the same,
or the power adapter's voltage about up to 0.5 volts more than the
laptop's voltage rating. Amperage of the power adapter should be at
least equal to or greater than the laptop's rating. It should never be
less than the laptop's rating, or else the power adapter will be
providing insufficient amperes to charge the battery.
It'll not help you, due to symptoms of ailing hard drive. Go to your BIOS and see if there any Hard Drive status check (like S.M.A.R.T.) If not, get somewhere (DOS based) HDD test that will run from CD/USB without Windows running.

Go Start>Run type 'msconfig'. select the box that sais - hide mocrosoft
Untick any boxes that arent microsoft products.
On the startup tab, unselect any boxes that are unknown manufacturers or manufacturers like HP/ Yahoo/ etc. Not Radeon or NVid though as they are your graphics
