I ask for advice because I've tried all my best:
The HP pavilion 5460, when power button pressed all lights (LEDs) go AND STAY on, but laptop does not boot, nothing comes on video, neither LCD nor external monitor, but DVD drive makes periodic noises, like getting requested by the MB.

I'd appreciate any clue.
