my comp wont boot into windows, all i get is a black screen and a little blinking box in the top left hand corner. what could be wrong? bad ram? its not a new system but 3 years old

 
...please don't say that you've been running OS install eversince you've got the computer :p
anyways.. did you try booting in safe mode? did you install any additional hardware lately? make sure your HD is working and you have proper boot sequence..
 
no no its been refomated many times lol, no new hardware, didnt touch anything inside, its my cuzins comp and they know shyt... ill try checking if the HD works and boot sequence

 
this happens to my bro's computer oddly enough, kinda often, not sure how often though. But anyway. have you tried shutting it down, waiting a bit then turning it back on? I think the conflict is happening somewhere in the boot sequence. I remember he had a mp3 player hooked up to the usb port when the blank screen came up once. I forgot to ask him if he remembers that being plugged in any of the other times. Make sure the boot sequence is right, maybe try switching to hdd first and check for any other perpherials attached the computers ports. not like printer and stuff, but thumb drives, mp3 players, etc.
 
ok, i have nothing conected to the comp except mouse, keyboard, monitor the first screen pops up were it scans the ram and shows HD,floppy drive, cd drive,(the screen with the energy star logo) abd the it ges to the next screen and i get ablack screen and all i get is a blinking box at the top left corner. im completely lost with this some1 plz help.
