Turn it off by the plug. Then turn it on. Then press Ctrl+Alt+Del.

 

I know another way but it's too complicated to explain

Actually I am assuming he had it set to save the state on hybernate and restore state on wake in which case his problem makes sense as if there was a power outage it would not be able to return from hibernation as the state was saved in the RAM. Tough luck.

Ouch.

Sorry to hear that LOTB.

Wish I was more computer savvy, and could help.

Hope your PC gets better soon.

Before you do that, do this:

 

Make sure all connections inside the computer are good. If you are not sure, disconnect it and reconnect it. The same thing happened with my brand new computer; the video card was loose.

 

If you have any AGP or PCI-e cards, take them out and try to start the computer.

 

Try to boot to a bootable CD. You may want to try knoppix (http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html), as it does not even use the hard drive.
