Default is my computer dying?

i have a 4 year old HP laptop. for the past few weeks, it sometimes suddenly cuts off on me and sometimes when i turn it on, the harddrive doesnt seem to go on and the screen stays blank even though the power is on and it is turned on.

Someone suggested it could be the battery. i have virtually no battery life in my computer, but when i unplug it (when it works) it still functions for a few minutes. i also tried to take out the battery, and same result.

Is my computer about dead? Is this common in older computers?
