Hey Everyone!
I have a HP desktop running Windows 7 that has been running healthy for a while now. It has multiple hard drives in it. The other day we found out that we could not get Windows to run on any of the alternate hard drives in the desktop and could only use the primary one. Then about one day later we couldn't even boot up in the primary drive.
Windows will startup normally and allow you to get into BIOS and select which hard drive to boot from but once you get to the Windows logo in startup, the logo will always flicker to a black screen and back to the Windows logo once before going black again and never coming back.
The computer is still running but is unresponsive. ctrl+alt+delete does nothing. Safe Mode will show the text of it loading in what I assume is the OS before stopping and freezing in the same place each time. I have no cursor in either case.
Any ideas as to what is bringing this on?
