My son-in-law was having no problems with his HP desktop. When he powered up yesterday, it went through the normal boot sequence and showed the progress bar that appears just before Windows Vista starts to load. When the progress bar reached the end, the screen went black. The mouse cursor appears (in low res) and moves around normally when the mouse is moved, but the monitor image remains black.
We've tried another video card, with the same results.
We hooked to another monitor, with the same results.
Any ideas?
