Try the diagnostics at the company's website, but they will say it's a bad hard drive; because the O/S boot up files are not loading, when you turn it on.

Did you try to reset your laptop? Unplug your power supply, then unplug your battery by holding your laptop in an horizontal postition and push the power button for about 5 seconds. Press it again some times and then plug back your battery and power supply and try to fire it up to see what happens

If it's the hard drive that is suspect, you could also take out the hard drive and try starting it without it, see if it blue screens or just gives you the "could not find boot device" screen.
