Default vista x64 will not boot from hard drive, restore, or from dvd

Thanks for your response, and yes I have the sales slip. I talked to HP and
shipping the machine back as soon as there box arrives. I suppect you are
correct, it's a hardware malfuntion. Being a new and unique design, (only a
month and a half old), I am reluctant to crack it open like a clam. Again,
Thanks--Max

I believe there is no user access to this sealed design.
I hope you are under warranty and have your sales slip.
I suspect that the power supply is malfunctioning.
In a regular box you can see this if the power supply is not signaling the
motherboard that there is adequate power to proceed with the boot process.
However as this is a unique HP designed system it could be any number of
things . . .
