Hp envy j040us power button blinking 4 times, but laptop won't go on.

[Donnab2]

My hp envy j040us laptop of 3 years, just shut down and never came back on. I did a hard reset but nothing improved. Right now when the power button is pressed , I see 4 steady blinks at 4 seconds intervals followed by one quick blink then the sequence starts all over again. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
