Won't get past initial screen

[salmas]

Hi
Not so long ago i tried installing windows 7 on my desktop PC
It seemed to install ok but then out of the blue the computer seemed to fail
now when i turn it on it just goes to a black screen which reads:

INTEL (r)Q33/Q35/G33 PCI Accelerated SVGA BIOS
Build Number: 1471 PC 14.27 (DATE)
DECOMPILATION OR DISASSEMBLY PROHIBITED

And that's it!
I can't seem to do anything else   
I have checked all the connections, which all seem sound and i just replaced the CMOS battery so that is good

So any suggestions!!!
Any help is much appreciated 

Thanks

Have you checked your RAM? I have had a similar thing happen with a faulty stick of RAM causing the BIOS to freeze mid-post.

Hey Transfusion
All the Ram boards seem to be located correctly
How do i check if they are faulty
Should the system run up without the RAM installed?

Thanks in advance for your help!
Cheers

You will need a known working computer to troubleshoot your RAM-download http://www.memtest.org/  and run it for 10 passes. It will indicate if there is a read/write error if your RAM is faulty.

Try one stick of ram in the different slots (could be bad stick or a bad slot), i would also try a reinstall of the os.
