blank screen-nvidia chip burn or ????

I turn on computer and cannot get anything on screen.
2 months ago i bought used compaq presario v6000, amd turon 64x2 tech tl-52, motherboard 30B7, xp pro, 1.61 ghz, 1 gig ram. Graphic Display NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150.
It worked fine for a month then i got busy and it sat on desk for a month. Unfortunately i honestly do not remember if it had elec cable plugged in during the month or not.
I push the on button and it and 3 other lights turn on, after 20 seconds lights flash and can hear two sounds below dvd, then 20 seconds again. Nothing works.

I went to big NVIDIA chat room and many guys there had same problem or knew about it, and everyone says if it sat there for a month plugged in on a flat table, probably the fan was covered and the nvidia chip on the motherboard burned up, and cost to replace would cost more than the computer.

Anyone have a suggestion??? This site is the best tech site there is, so i hope someone can help. Anyone have the same motherboard for sale? Not much chance there. This is my only laptop, and would really like to fix it..HELP HELP HELP!!!! jON?
