Notebook Sony Vaio vgn_fs840_w. The computer won't to start.

I press the power button, the LCD screen is off and all the indicator lights are on (power, battery, HDD, Num lock, Caps lock, Scroll lock, Wlan)
Not any peripheral device connected and no beeps code.
Any ideas what it might be?

Probably a LCD malfunction.
Connect your computer to a external monitor and check whether it works fine or not.
Please feel free to ask me any further.

My sony vaio vgn fs790 would'nt start up all it does is light up all of the three lights located near the power button and the lights near the battery indicator too, and they stay on. then it...

It sounds like you may be having a video related issue. These issues may indicate that you have a problem with either your video card or your lcd screen. To isolate the issue, you have to connect an external monitor to the VGA port of the portable system. There should be an S2 button on your laptop which should allow you to switch videos. Press that and if the video appears on the monitor, then it is an issue with the LCD screen. If nothing happens, you have a video card failure. These are due for replacement already.

The hard drive is good all the lights light up but screen stays blank

Did you accidentally push the Function + (whatever) keys that switch the video out to an external monitor screen?

If the backlight of the LCD screen went bad - you could turn off all the lights - need a very dark room - you could still see the contents of the screen.

Vaio wont start up shuts off

check two things, video (reinstall drivers) and the other may be a heat event, look in the BIOS set up in the event log.
blow dust out with compress gas especially around the heat port and exhaust fans.
