Hi, my dad has been having this HTPC computer for quite sometimes. Hi, my father has had this HTPC computer for quite sometime. He hasn?t installed anything relatively new. A few days ago it started acting strange; I had to restart the computer at least twice for the curser to activate and to see the blue login screen. Now it doesn?t matter how many times I restart it, after the windows loading sign its over it goes into a blank stage where I cannot see the curser or the login screen

I have tried:
safe mode, check for virus
system restore
go into recovery console and do a CHKDSK -r

is it connected to a monitor or a TV? or both?

when you boot it normally and it "goes into a blank stage where I cannot see the curser or the login screen" does the monitor go into standby after a few minutes?

is there any disk activity after it "goes into a blank"?

when it has gone blank, does the numlock/capslock light go on and off if you hit the numlock/caps lock key?

are you saying it boots into safe mode windows okay?
