At the beginning; After the Windows Logo at the start, the screen goes black and a POWER SAVE MODE comes up. I must stop button. I can run the computer as I am now in Mode safe mode with networking.

When I turn on the computer of gateway, the machine starts and the initial window logo starts and runs for about five seconds.  Then the screen goes black instead of blue and stays black for about 10 seconds.  A 'Power SAVE MODE' appears.  The machine is dead to all orders.  I have to stop by pressing the off button.  I can turn back and the F10 key to get in Mode safe mode with networking.

I tried to reinstall Windows XP original but it would erase my files.  I tried to restore the last good configuration also knowledge.  That did not work.

The change came after a Windsows update.  I have McAfee security and I asked Windows but could not use due ot a conflict. -C' is all this bad start.  Clues?  I use Negear.  No change when I hooked directly either.

Botton line, I can run in SafeMode with networking; but it is slow and I can't make alll I have to do.  What does not load Windows?

    Hello

    You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
    Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
    on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
    CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
    on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
    by tapping F8 as you start several times.

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
    Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
    Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
    field efforts.

    ===============================
    I don't know what is causing this problem but would be
    suspicious, it is related to a corrupted or obsolete
    video driver.

    (scroll down to: "If you are using Windows 2000 or XP")

    If they improve the question, you should look for the
    site Web of MFG. your video card
    a updated driver Win XP compatible video. Or...
    If your computer is a laptop... Search support
    site of the manufacturer of your computer.

    If you do not know the make and model of your
    Video adapter, see the documentation that
    supplied with the computer.

    Also you can find info on your video by driver
    go to Device Manager: you can launch
    By clicking Device Manager on... Start/run and
    type or copy / paste:
    devmgmt.msc
    And then press ENTER.

    Expand "Graphics cards" and right click
    the name of your graphics... then
    choose... Properties / tab pilot... FYI.

    You should find the make and model of your
    adapter display as well as the version of the driver.

    If the driver on the Web site is no longer
    current than you run...
    Download and install it. In addition, installation
    instructions that should be followed closely
    should be available on the support site.

    Once installed the new video driver... you
    can restore your full acceleration.

    I tried restoring the system that works and that gets our screen back to normal but every day that this Auto setting is coming and we can't seem to stop it.

    Try this:

    Go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your laptop computer-graphics/computer card > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

    Then:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-AU/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution

    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  • My screen goes black and 'safe mode' apears

    My screen goes black in the middle of something and then 'safe mode' appears and then the screen turns off.  This often happens in the middle of a game on FACEBOOK.  I can hear the game continue to pay and then it times out.  Quite often when I switch the power on the screen is covered in black and white letters and symbols coloured with casual, and I can see 'safe mode' in the middle of it.  Takes several attempts to actually it reboot.  Any help?

    Hi BarbaraNevitt,

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Disconnect all external devices and try to start the computer and check the issue persists.

    Method 2: Follow these steps:

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode with network and check if the problem persists.

    Startup options (including safe mode)

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

    Step 2: If the problem does not persist in safe mode with networking, perform a clean boot to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow the link step 7 to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

    Method 3: Update the display/graph drivers and chipset.

  • Screen goes black and only the mouse pointer visible to the windows xp screen

    My computer has used to work without problems.  Now, when I start it upward, to the Windows XP start screen, the screen turns off and all that is visible is the mouse pointer.  I tried to start safe mode, and it does give me even the option - not even if I press F8 at startup upward.  What is the problem with my computer and what can do?

    Thanks for your answers, Dena and Jojih.

    The screen went black and all I could see was the mouse pointer.  There is no ameioration or changes on the hardware of all kinds.  I wonder if one of my employees has a virus on the computer.  I could not do in safe mode, even if I tried to press F8.  If I put in the Windows XP CD, the screen would go black after that he loaded the system files, just like at the start of Windows XP.  So I used Acronis PC Backup and Recovery and make a recovery disc and used to reformat the hard drive and then I reinstalled Windows XP.  Everything has been great to work for.

    This is not a problem of IE.  Most likely a symptom of the use of the OS high-contrast mode accessibility option.   For example try to press LeftAlt + LeftShift + print to pass this parameter.

    Does not need to update the Nvidia driver because it is up to date and could not update the Viewsonic that Windows only recognizes as "PnP monitor" generic monitor, even if it is described as Viewsonic in the Nvidia Control Panel. Did restore the default values in the video section of the Nvidia Control Panel, and that seems to have solved the problem.

    Thanks a lot for your help!

    Install these updates of 2 drivers and then restart the pc and try again see if the problem occurs.

    Another thing that I recommend is trying to reset your settings to default monitor by pressing the MENU button and finding the option defauult of zero/factory reset.

    You can also restore the default settings in the Nvidia Control Panel by clicking on restore by default in most sections.
