Blank Screen After POST!!

I cant use my computer anymore. Everytime I turn it on blank screen
follows the POST. I tried clearing the CMOS but didn't work.

I tried Reinstalling windows but after the message
"Windows is checking ur Hardware...." the screen goes blank and hangs. Cant even enter Safe mode (F8 key).

BIOS are correct. Also remove the Battery and put it again after a few munites but only reset the date and clock and didnt help at
all.

.Windows XP SP2
.AMD Athlon
.GeForce
. 2.8 Ghz

What should I do?
Tnx in advance!

best is to use the Windows repair function off the Windows CD. You'll probably end up redoing the FDISK (to get the NBR right), then Format, then Windows Install.

Have you removed everything you can from the machine. Use on board video and remove any cards. How many modules do you have for memory. Try taking one out. Are the fans spinning all ok ??
press the num lock key on the keyboard, does the light come on and off ?

Give this a try and post the results.

Thx

Mark.

I didn't remove any devices sir. The keyboard wont function as well

after POST (even num lock). I only have 1 module sir so cant really

take it out. The 3 fans are all fine.

I dont really have the CD (borrowed only).
