    Dell 1645 Dead.. power on but Nothing else

    Symtoms:
    - Powers on, but does not boot.
    - Blank screen.
    - Power LED stays on.
    - HDD LED blinks at the beginning and stops.
    - Bluetooth LED blinks every few seconds.
    - Keyboard LEDs flash once after powering on.
    - CD/DVD tray won't open, but spins for a second after powering on..

    Radeon HD 4670 video card. Is this the problem and where do I get a replacement or upgrade?
