Hiya David,
Sounds like the suspend switch is faulty, common problem on these
models, very tempremental.
Get the keyboard unlatched (two leveres at the front iirc so it lifts up
to reveal the components inside (battery, ultrabay module and hard
disk), then turn the machine on, lift the keyboard up and locate towards
the middle at the front a depressed area on the keyboard's back - this
is the suspend switch, when found, hold it in, and the machine should
boot fine and not 'switch off' as you describe.
To solve this on a 765L I jammed some paper in the hole very tight
indeed and the problem was solved.
Vicky
