    My Sony Vaio VGN-SZ491N won't boot. It powers up and charges the battery, I can operate the Wireless switch (the Speed/Stamina switch has no effect). I never see the Vaio logo from the bios. The DVD drive seeks normally, the hard drive spins up but is never accessed, so I know its not a dead screen. Any ideas?
