blue screen is all I get

My MacBook Pro powers up and I get the apple icon and start up sound. However, all I can see is complete blue screen and cursor. Is this my video card? Any ideas?

I can hear hard drive running as well.

Do you have an external bootable HD which you can boot your system up? Give that a try.

Here's the Apple TN on the boot up process: Intel-based Mac: Startup sequence and error codes, symbols.

Here's a good write up on diagnosing a Blue screen condition: Troubleshooting Mac Startup Problems - Stuck at the Blue Screen. Sadly Apple doesn't have a good TN on how to fix a Blue Screen from booting only when your in an app.

Most of the time I try using disk Utility a try from a different startup disk. I also try fixing the permissions as well. If I can get the disk to boot up I restart running in Safe mode (or a 3rd party tool like Drive Genius) so the directory bTree is rebuilt.

Often I discover the drive is on its last legs so I end up swapping out the drive.

Please give us the last three figures of your serial number so we know your exact machine. Try starting up from your original system installation disk and let us know if the problem persists.
