Blank screen on boot, fixes it once.
I was playing a computer game yesterday and it froze up. Music in the background started to sound like a broken record, but kept playing. I rebooted, started playing again, and same thing happened after a few minutes. It freezes again a third time, and when I rebootnow, I don't get the beep, just a blank screen with fans running.
After alot of googling I've tried different things:
Reseating everything, reseting cmos and so on.
If I boot without memory, there is a continuus beep (heard thats a good sign for the motherboard)
I've found that everytime the memory chips ( I have 4) swap places I'm able to boot once.
I can run windows repair, which will reboot and everything still works. Problem is when I boot windows normally, I get through the logo and then a blank screen again. If I force a reboot, the blank screen before boot is back.
I'm guessing it's hardware failure, anyone who can help me recognise which part of my computer is broken?
