Hi!
When I press power button, it starts producing some noise (hdd
spinning up), but power light goes pulsating, not on, and I stare at
black screen.
No beep?
No beep. And no beep when I tried booting with RAM removed.
Just some random thoughts, probably not very helpful:
I assume you have tried pushing F1, F12 or the ThinkVantage Button
during boot?
Remove and re-insert all ram.
Especially if it has an i7 processor, could it be overheating? Try
removing the heat sink and apply new thermal grease (and clean the fan,
of course).
I have one of these machines myself, never had any problem with it.
