Laptop: Acer Travelmate 290

Ok heres the problem, i hit the power button, it turns on, but it wont start up.. Once in a while i am able to make it to the windows xp loading screen, then the screen goes black again!

I thought it was a power problem, i tryed starting with battery only, and power cord only. Both did not help!

Anything u can recommend me doin?

Insert boot disk would normally mean your hard drive is dead, or you have non bootable media attempting to boot (e.g. a CD ROM in the drive, a USB key plugged in or Flash Media)
