Andre, Can you get into the setup menu? I'm having a problem with a laptop that appears to work OK except it won't load windows.(Booting linux from a CD works fine). Running the setup program and then pressing the "load default settings" button got it going again - possibly temporarily. (CMOS battery replacement coming up). But the point is that there seems to be CMOS settings that can't be adjusted, other than by reloading defaults. I'd also check the electrolytic caps as suggested elsewhere - I seem to be finding this problem more & more these days.
