You could try re-installing the firmware again see if that helps. Get it from HERE.
What happens when you check firmware version? Just hold down the menu button then turn it on, it SHOULD display the version number in the middle of the screen, Ver 1.30 or something should appear.
Hope this help!

One day you'll find, 10yrs have got behind you.

I know this may be a really daft question, but were you wearing glasses at the time? I once had the same thing before realising my polarised glasses were preventing me from seeing anything on the screen, even though the camera was fine.

I know what you mean about the polarized lenses, but I wasn't wearing them.
I tried checking the firmware, but the screen won't even show me that.

Low battery as in this thread -

This has references to the problem being caused by a defective memory card, or the memory card door not properly shut -

Ehow says - "lso, some people experienced their camera freezing up after a lens change or a memory-card replacement, and had to send their camera back to Pentax for repair."
Sounds like you have tried most of the above. Memory card door closed?
Good luck, hope you get it sorted.
