Hi,

Not knowing that is wrong I would reinstall grub. Boot with a live
disk or with the install disk and reinstall grub. If you need help
with all the steps please ask. But also try to capture the last two
lines or so when the system is booting before it gets to the blank
screen. It is important to know if the system stops before or after
loading the kernel, etc.

Good luck.

Ionel


P.S. I took the liberty to correct debain into debian.
