Unseat and reseat the memory one stick at a time in each slot on at a time. After each reseat of the memory, turn on the laptop and see if you get video. If you still don't get video, go ahead and take out the hard drive and the dvd drive.

Then try turning on the laptop, if you still don't get video then the motherboard is bad and you'll need to get it replaced.

The mother board may have a problem. Go to www.hp.com and select support. Enter your model of the laptop (or product number) and check to see if they'll fix it for free. There have been recalls on the issue in the past.
