Try reseting the thing completely:

 1. Remove *all* power: batteries, CMOS batteries if any (probably the *60
    don't have one, but...), AC adapter.

 2. Press the switch-on button at least 10 times, for at least 2s each.

 3. Do a final long press (10s or so).

 4. Plugin in batteries, ac-adapter, and see if it boots.  You *will*
    need to enter the BIOS and reconfigure the laptop.

That procedure (or variations of it) has unbricked a lot of ThinkPads of
various models.
