Hi
What is your operating system?
What is the make and model of your laptop? How old is it?
Can you hear the fan running?
What happens if you try to boot in safe mode with networking ?

It's a Dell Inspiron 14z-N411z, uses windows 7. Yes, I can hear the fan running when I turn it on.
Im not sure how old it is, maybe 2 years
I don't know how to boot in safe mode with networking, I'm not too good with computers.

To boot in safe mode, just after pressing the power button, keep taping F8. The procedure should lead you to a dark screen with some options, one being safe mode with networking. With your arrow up and down keys, select it and press the famous enter key.

I tried, I repeatedly tapped F8, held it, everything I could do. It just continued with the issue, loading the very first dell loading bar and going to the black screen.

This is a very sticky wicket.
Since F8 will not lead you to advanced boot options, I'm afraid there is hard disk failure which can only be verified by a hands on qualified technician.
Since your machine could be rather new, I would insist with Dell that you got a lemon and that they should assume the cost of repair.
Sorry
P.S. I ignore for what activities, downloads and conditions you used the laptop, so it is impossible to pinpoint the source.
