check Hardware first (cable, moniter...); I know
it sounds stupid but anything could happen :-(

after making sure everyting is right, try it

1. turn off power
2. turn on power ( after turn on power, press Stop-N NOT Stop-A untill it boot; do not release both of key till machine boot up)

3. if machine still not up not even a spining "|" sign, I will check cpu or motherboard.

Hope this help Smilie
