    I'm just new on this board.Maybe its too late for the owner but this information is just for others who do have the same problem. First you have to notice how many times it blink.
    1= CPU problem
    4= Display

    for other blink please search HP website they do have more information on other blink

          hi all ,
          CQ40 ( with AMD Turion64) have a well known " series " of faults.
          first the LCD gose dark with no display at all without any blinking on
          the CAPS LOCK KEY ( some times with ), solution is replacing the LCD panel.
          then same will happens again after some time ( 3 to 8 months in most cases),
          this time a reflow of the GPU will fix that.
          then keep reflowing as needed ( max 3-4 times ) then reball.
          finaly : sell all the parts u can, keep the mainboard for spare parts ( caps, mos, seristors ).



          problem is in the GPU not in LCD.

          forgot to mention battery dieing in the first 8-12 months

          if u have INTEL version , ignore all that ( never seen this fault in intel's one)

          good luck
