   If you mean that the machine *posts* normally when you said "boot sounds   
   normal" your monitor is probably bad or your cable fell off.   
      
      
   If the machine does not post, then the mobo or PSU is possibly bad.   
      
   If the post beeps erratically, then your video card or RAM is bad (or   
   possibly just needs reseating).   
      
      
   The good news is that your hard drive is more than likely fine though.
