kernel update --> heavy hardware problem

Hi.

Yesterday I updated my notebook with new kernel, xorg and other things - hours later my system freezes.
After a restart nothing is working but the power led. 30 minutes later everything was again fine like normal. This happend 2 or 3 times...
The last was that the system freezed while kernel loading. Now I can hit the power button and nothing happens (even the power led is off).
I've unplugged the mainboard battery but this didn't solve the problem. I think there is something realy broken.

I think the chance that the trigger is an hardware problem is not that big. On the other side I can't understand what the new kernel release can damage so heavy.
I don't know what to do. I think I will ask a friend with more hardware experience but I don't hope too much.
The last weeks I was looking for a new notebook but I didn't expect I'll need it that fast.

Any advices?

Thanks, Andreas
