First of all, if you have two ram modules, try removing one of them. If you have only one, use memtest86, it can test ram for failures. It looks like ram failure to me. But it could be also a hdd problem, try listening for strange sound.

First, is the computer coming on, do you hear the boot up beeps and sounds. if that is happening, try another monitor, if that works, buy a new one, if that does not work, repalce the video card. if none of that works, take the machine to a local shop for analisis. This might remotely be caused by a virus, but if you are using a good virus protection, it should have caught it.
