single user mode - cant type anything
verbose mode - cant type anything
load original install disks - stuck on same screen
hardware test - did it twice and it didnt find any problems

Try zapping the PRAM by rebooting and holding down Option, Command (one with the Apple icon) P and R keys all at the same time immediately after the chimes. Keep held down until after the third chime.

Other than this have you got a spare hard drive you can install?
