Damn...I don't even know if any utilities will help at this point. I had BartPE running on it, since XP won't recognize my mouse or keyboard (even in Safe Mode), but then the mouse started getting glitchy so I went to restart it and the thing sounds like it is turning on...checks to see if a CD is in there, etc. However, nothing shows up on the monitor, and the optical mouse and keyboard -- both of which should light up -- remain dark.

Does this sound like an overheated CPU issue maybe? That's the only thing that comes to mind...
