Dell Inspiron M5010 giving 7 beeps and no display.

searches and came up with the same answer, Bad Processor. Replaced the processor one evening and that resolved the problem. Power unit up the next morning and had no display with 7 beeps. Could I just have a bad mother board.
Can't tell, the display is blank. It takes approximately 20 sec. for the beeps to start. When I did an inspection on the original CPU the thermal paste was totally dried up. I reapplied new compound, cleaned the fins, fan and heat sink removed and reseated memory. Installed hard drive into another laptop to to verify HD.
