Thanks for the answers. One more question: If, when starting the machine up while holding down the C key (with a bootable disc in the drive), one does not hear the CD spinning at all, what's that tell us?

It tells us that the CD drive isn't even trying to read the media, which tends to rule out a dirty laser.
