Hi, Not knowing that is wrong I would reinstall grub. Boot with a live disk or with the install disk and reinstall grub. If you need help with all the steps please ask. But also try to capture the last two lines or so when the system is booting before it gets to the blank screen. It is important to know if the system stops before or after loading the kernel, etc. Good luck. Ionel P.S. I took the liberty to correct debain into debian.
