Does the power LED actually switch off, or does it just dim and brighten? If it switches off, then I would say there is a power problem. Either the PSU, or the power connector on the board, or the battery has eaten some of the board.

Ok, so it's maintaining power, which is good. Dimming and brightening power LED suggests the machine is crashing and rebooting constantly. Follow doctorq's advice and try to get some video output from the machine. You will probably find you get a coloured screen which will indicate where the problem lies.
