Boot computer monitor stays blank, goes to amber light after a few secs. Hard drive spins and then stops, cd roms will spin then stops. All indicates "sleepmode", but can't wake up. Keyboard light blinks on startup, hard drive goes amber and then out, power supply good, hard drive tried elsewhere and is OK. Is there a trick or jumpers on mother board I can remove to allow a "wake-up" call?
 
Howdy:

Sounds like a bad video connection or viseo card.. Can you boot into Safe Mode??

Cannot boot-up to anything. Screen blank. Thought of video card, but the pavilion is all intergrated except for a modem card. Is new motherboard only choice? Have heard of these HP's somehow being locked in "sleepmode" but no solutions to "wake-up".
