Hi, It's possible that your machine is starting up with a different monitor mode than the setting you currently use! It's a problem I've had in the past...it seems like it's stuck but in fact the monitor setting had changed from my scart connection to a different one. I can't remember how to get the monitor settings up (it is simple!!!) but I'm sure someone will come on here and let you know.
Cheers,
Parsman.

Sounds like a crash which can be fixed by removing ALL the cables attached and let the unit sit for 2 hours. Since you were rendering for an extended time, the buffer is probably so full that the boot-up is confused. If that does not work I will post the monitor/mouse method. But try this first.
