it might actually be the sleep mode, it does it to save power when it's left on for a while. You can change it or turn it off with something called "Power Options" It's in the control panel, try typing it into the start menu's search box.

it might be the supply power you should try to connect the cable from your scren to your hard drive and c if it works if all else fails try to open it and see if the cables might have burned or got disconnected...if that fails simply disconect all cables and put one at a time and in each one check if it will turn on.

That error also cause by a corrupt registry error.
