I have a Compaq F700 Laptop that powers on and off when the power button is pressed. I can press and hold the power button to get the unit to stay off. When I press the power button to turn the unit on again if I press the F10 key the unit will stay on and not cycle, but I still have a black screen and the unit will not fully boot. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Inzone for the reply. I have had this unit for some time now and this just started. It was working fine one night and the next morning the problem started. I am not able to get to the bios, can't get the unit to boot from a boot disk either.
