MS750 problem???

[ChicagoDog]

I planned on selling my MS750 to someone locally today. I have not used it in a while. I turned it on and the red light just pulsed, the fan fired up and then a click noise like a camera shutter every couple of seconds followed by a beep. I finally hooked up a television to it and it says "starting up..." then it said "connecting to server, software update" I don't even have it connected to the internet. The faceplate does not light up either. This has never happened before. CD tray won't eject, no lighting (other than the pulsing red light at the power/stanbye switch) What's going on??
