normal" your monitor is probably bad or your cable fell off.
If the machine does not post, then the mobo or PSU is possibly bad.
If the post beeps erratically, then your video card or RAM is bad (or
possibly just needs reseating).
The good news is that your hard drive is more than likely fine though.

LCD monitors typically display the manufacturer's logo and a "No Sync" message
when powered up this way. If the front panel switch lights up when pushed, but
you see nothing on the screen, the problem is probably internal. If it's a CRT monitor,
try adjusting the brightness control.
