I have an hp pc. I turn on the comp and it just stops at the hp screen and doesnt do anything else...i tried leaving it on for an hour but still nothing happened. I unpluged the hard drive and still the same thing happened. Also i got 3 options when it starts up ( boot menu,setup and something else) when I turn it i push the button to go into the setup, it says on the bottom left that its entereing setup than it just does nothing and stops, the same for the other 2 options. Alsso I went on a camping trip like 13 days ago and I left my comp on for 9 days ( i know im stupid ). I restarted it when i got back and it took alot longer to go through the hp screen than b4 i left for the trip. Im in no financial position right now to be able to buy another motherboard or anything else .

Open it up and check all the fans are clean of dust and are spinning correctly.

Sounds like it overheating.

Also leaving it on for periods of time will fry it so don't do that.

9 days without being switched off may have done some damage to your hard drive, or mabe the processor.

I'm guessing it's crashing when it's unable to access the HD.
