There are several different lights on a typical motherboard, each meaning different things. Different colors also usually indicate different types of status (e.g. green informational, red problems). If you can get the manual for that motherboard there will be a list identifying the meaning of each LED.
Most likely an LED that you have never seen light up when the machine worked but now lights up is indicating a low level hardware failure that prevents operation.
I have a desktop computer that has 7 or 8 LEDs on its motherboard, although all of them are red LEDs the manual identifies all but one as informational status lights, the remaining one which is slightly offset from the line of the others is identified as "fatal hardware error" and if it lights at any time the computer cannot operate in any way.
Manufacturer has nothing to do with it. The boot time is purely based on what operating system and the overall quality of the motherboard, not manufacturer.

Nothing happens. It is physiological phenomena in pregnancy.
It isn't. the operating system is installed in your Hard Drive...your BIOS are in your CMOS(a little chip on your motherboard) the two have nothing to do with each other
Another term for motherboard is mainboard.
You can use a screwdriver or something like that to make a connection between 2 specific pins. Otherwise, you will not be able to power up the system, and this problem should be fixed so that using a tool to power up the system is not necessary.
The BIOS on the motherboard.
Nothing it is illigal to have it in your possession not have it in your system :-)
A system board or a mainboard can be called a motherboard, or "mobo" for short.
