My mum and dads HP laptop loads up to the log in screen and then when u click on 1 of the user names (I have tried both) it just has a black screen with the mouse showing (you can also do a control alt and delete to get to the task manager)

Just after the BIOS, tap F8 till you get a prompt for safe mode. If it works in safe mode it's probably a driver issue.
Try Last Good Confiuration in that list as well

Ram and processor aren't good enough, it won't run any slower than Vista though.
