problem turning on Inspiron 9100

I've been having this problem for little over a year now and I'm sick of it. I try to turn on my laptop a Dell Inspiron 9100 (I know it sucks), and it turns on and I can see it load, then the screen goes black. I then push ctrl alt del and numerous other combos to try and get the screen to turn back on. More often than not I end up restarting the thing because I hit the button without even knowing it. Is there a way to make this thing stop doing that, and what is the actual problem? Any help would be great.

Re: problem turning on Inspiron 9100

Would this problem be anyway related to the battery. If so would replacing it fix the problem or is this a different type of problem?
