Thanks, Trigger, I'll give that a try. I had tried pulling the battery but I've not held the power button down as you suggested. Hopefully that will do something.

Otherwise I have tried reseating the RAM modules which did not help. Also tried starting just on AC with the battery out, and again just on battery power with A/C unplugged. It always does the exact thing, after the HD spins up the A LED(caps lock indicator) and the 1 LED flash on then off, then nothing. And the A LED will cycle on and off with the caps lock key. That seems to be the only key that remains functional. Also, the power button works for hard power on and off.
