compaq presario are pretty bad laptops overall mine died within a year for unknown reasons lol.

im going to say a wild guess and suggest checking the power pin header and make sure its not bent or damaged

also if it constantly flashes its most likely the power adapter lead or power brick

guy on this put a chart of what the lights actually mean when it blinks

also try removing the memory if it has 1 try plugging just 1 in could be a failed memory stick
