Motherboard?

Hi. I've had a friend ask me to look at their computer. When you switch on, all you get is the start in safe mode, safe with networking etc. When you select one of these the computer just reboots and brings you back to that screen. I've changed the HDD to no avail. I've changed the RAM and even removed everything and started again. Nothing. I have chaned the bios to start with the cd with a copy of windows. Hit any key to start from the cd. Now I just have a blank screen. No command promt, nothing. Any ideas guys?
Cheers

When you go into the bios settings can you see the HD there.. ?? is the red activity light on at front of com.. can you hear any beeps ???

 

It's ok now. Can you believe I had two bad HDDs??? Got it on a smaller one now but thanks anyway.

 

Glad to hear your up and running again zillid
