This performa, owned by my neighbours was given a forced reboot 
when it got locked up in a game (by his kids). Now it wont 
start, just a short whirr, the monitor light flashes and it 
stops.
Any relevant suggestions gratefully received

Boot it off the emergency boot disc (CD or floppy, whatever's available)
and repair the HDD damage with Disk First Aid or (if they've got it)
Norton Disk Doctor.
