Packard Bell Easynote E3 Laptop Won't boot, no picture, no POST
 

Machine was just fine, checked the obvious and ram, harddisk, ... is all
fine, no picture at all.
Machine suddenly stopped working while booting xp, now only a long beep, 2
seconds wait, another long beep
and so on.
Google does not make me any wiser, neither packard bell.
I'v re-seated the cpu to no avail.
Anyone seen this before?

The hdd is fine, and even with a faulty or no hdd i should have a picture on
my external monitor.
I removed hdd, dvdrw, wlan... same problem, no post, only a long beep every
sec.
