Hi, if it's just a complete black screen, no response or anything from the PC, then it's most likely the Hard drive has been corrupted. If you have a spare Hard drive with an OS on it, hook it up, remove the current one and see if it will boot. If it does you'll have to re-install windows on the corrupt drive. Formatting it would probably be the best course of action to wipe it and make it a clean drive. Try using Recuva,a free tool on it be connecting it to another PC and see if any files can be recovered.
Hope this...
