hmm.. So there's screen corruption during POST(ram count and Hardrive detection) then monitor goes out while windows is loading or as soon as POST finishes? I'm guessing you can't get into safe mode?
I had the same problem and it ended up being the power supply. I had 2 video cards to test with, one was a big guy that needed extra power cord and the other was a cheap thing. With the cheap one, It had enough juice to load into safe mode but the bigger card had corruption on the POST screen and monitor went out right as the windows loading screen was popping up.
