Sister's laptop trouble

General
When life gives you lemons, burn life's house down. Preferrably with life still inside.
So the fucker worked fine yesterday, until it decided to freeze completely. Non responsive to any keyboard or mouse input, all fans were spinning, however I noticed that it's CD/DVD drive was trying to load a disc from the tray for some reason, even though there wasn't any disc inside. It does it even with tray open, as I can see the laser lens blinking every couple of seconds.
So I forcefully shut it down with power button, and try to power it on again.
Again, fans spin (albeit at constant pace) however that disc tray issue is still there, and the system won't boot at all. Not even the manufacturer splash logo shows up, just a black screen, so I am ruling out HDD failure for now. I will be taking it to a technician tomorrow to check it out.
The model is HP 6735s.

Just don't take it to a tech charging more than $40 to look at your computer. Find someone local to do it much cheaper that way to confirm hardware failer.
That trouble isn't surprise, HP sucks in that price category.
