Hi guys, I'm new here, so sorry if this was posted in the wrong section.
A couple months ago my computer wouldn't boot after getting turned off for the night. It turns itself on, and the first thing I see is several green lines on the screen (The lines aren't complete, but looks like this: - -- ------ ------ in sections downwards, creating 4-5 semi-complete lines) on a black screen. Then it loads up Amerian Megatrends bios screen and says that only 4 drivers are found after an info screen where the text is like: n% $r!/£r? w£r£ f%#+$
Then it tries to boot windows 7, but halts on a black screen after the BIOS screen with a white line (Like in CMD) stuck flashing.
Personally, I suspect a power surge has fried something, like a capasitor on the motherboard, but I'm unsure.
Any help would be greatly apperciated, as this has frustrated me for months now
Specs:
AMD Phenom FX 8-core Black Edition
16GB DDR3 RAM
Nvidia 8800GTS
Cooler Master 750W PSU
