My computer seemed as if it had died ... the screen remained black however there 
seemed to be a heartbeat ...

I don't know if I am in the right place or not, but I have been having trouble with my computer. At first, my computer screen went black and my drive apparently were working (or something was, from what I can hear inside of my tower) ... but alas I tried everything from rebooting and restarting from last best known configuration and nothing helped. I finally tried updating my BIOS using an USB Flashdrive and have had some moderate success in getting the BIOS to come up on the screen for a few moments, but then my computer shuts down completely. Can anyone make any suggestions to help me with my predicament. I am using an Intel D945GTP Motherboard with a LGA 775 Socket Processor, 1033 MHz (2 sticks of 512MB @ 533 MHz) and I have Vista 32-bit (longhorn version) installed from an upgrade to which I had Windows XP Media Center prior to installed prior to the upgrade.

Please reply with some help, Majorly Frustrated !!!
