Question about HP Compaq Presario SR1720NX (EL435AA) PC Desktop
Left computer on overnight. Came back to frozen screen...pointer that wouldn't move. Couldn't hard reboot. Unplugged and replugged. Now it is stuck on the Compaq screen. Can't reboot or get into bios because keyboard not responding now. When I unplug keyboard and plug back in, lights flash once on keyboard and then it goes off again. This computer is one year old and I've never had a problem with it before.
I would take the cover off and reseat the memory, video card, and processor. Make sure your fan(s) are working too, and blow any dust out of it if you see a lot of build up.

Took it to geeksquad and they said the motherboard was out....but they weren't for sure about it. I think it's probably not worth the parts to have it repaired. thanks for your response.
Same exact problem here with a Compaq, turned out to be a bad motherboard. (Someone threw it out, said it sat outside all winter, lol)
Still salvaged 3000AMD cpu, HD, DVD burner, PS, Ram, and a nice case, heh.
is it booting up from the cd
Did you have any storms or powerr surges that you know of?
