Cannot give history of problem just stuck with a mess.

Initial power on shows HP Screen says ESC to change boot order F2 to Setup F12 to boot from lan, then no response.
Sometimes Esc will work to the point where it will start doing a test with memory and video but just after video it will go no further.
Sometimes it will allow you to go to f12 but just blink as it is not networked like that.
It never allows me to enter setup.
I put HD on enclosure and OS was intact.
I am assumming MB but any techs out there that work on a Component level?
I can solder just about anything but I wanted to skip that could be the ?? part and go right to replacement of components.
Any help would of course be appreciated
