Alright today when I turned my computer on it displayed no video what so ever I have checked all connects and they seem to be firmly in place

And my monitor is still working if I connect my xbox to it so it's not the monitor I believe it may be graphics card but it all seems to boot up fine but there is no picture can anyone help me?

I got it to appear on screen and to login now but it freezes and now I can't do anything

It loads up the desktop then it just freezes you can see the loading circle for windows then it becomes unresponsive to the mouse and keyboard and it's been like that since I sent the last message also the power button isn't responding either so the computer won't turn off or restart unless I turn of from the socket

Sounds like a damaged Hard Drive to me... Hard drives go into quarter speed, sometimes even slower when they break.. The symptoms are as you described.

To prove me wrong you need to confirm that the computer always displays Posts screen.

What u mean by computer always displays post screens ?
