My computer randomly crashed one day and won't turn back on. I can get to the bios screen, I've run memory test which came back fine. I've tried booting from a USB stick with linux on that is confirmed working on another computer and has booted before on this computer. But the moment you close the BIOS screen it goes to a black screen with a blinking cursor, this is the same if booted from a hard drive, usb or CD. I've tried resetting the cmos with no luck. I'm guessing some hardware has broken, but with no spare hardware its hard to troubleshoot, any
ideas on which part it might be?

The motherboard is a MSI Z68A-G43-B3, Pentium i5-i2500k, MSI Geforce GTX 560Ti Twin.

Thanks.
