Hi,
What model and brand is your computer? and are there any beeps or sounds when you attempt a start up?

OK. Im not familiar with this model, but you said you checked the cables for the monitor, so im guessing it's a desktop and not a laptop, right? Can you access the BIOS? And, if you can, install your OS on an external hard drive, then open it and put it in as your internal hard drive. That way you'll know at least know where the problem is or isn't. I've done this once before to fix an external, 3.5 inch external, not 2.5 inch (the big kind you need to plug into a wall)

OK, then do the second suggestion. Sorry, in my last post i said 'if you can in the 3rd line. I meant if you know how to connect the external, not asking if you can access your bios.
There was a problem with my old laptop, an HP as well. As a temporary fix, i left it for about an hour on, then restarted it and it worked. The permanent fix was to replace the motherboard. This may fix your computer, but it is expensive and should be done if you're sure the problem is there.

AMD Athlon 64x2 4400+
NVIDA GeForce 7500 LE
300GB Hard Drive
1024MB Ram --> Currently has 2GB
No beeping upon start up that I can hear above the loud fan noise.
