Ok I'm stumped.

Plug it in press the button. Not much happens. Fans turn on but, Display does not light, No post, no splash, no beeps. Blindly hitting f10 or f anything does not help.

The dvd drive light blinks, the tray opens and closes, but a dvd's inserted don't produce a boot. Ubuntu included.

Tried plugging in an alternate hard drive, no change.
