Black screen before loading windows

I watched videos and all of a sudden my computer crashes. I had similar to freeze in the past and I restarted my pc, and that she would go to advanced boot settings, so I was able to start windows. This time I rebooted and the motherboard splash screen came, but before loading Windows logo appears, the screen goes all black, boot advanced settings does not appear this time. The only shot that turned out to do anything is Ctrl + Alt + Delete, which just restart the computer and the same thing happens. I can't get into my bios. I am running Windows Vista 32bit.i do not have a RAID array. Any help will be greatly appreciated and sorry for my bad English.

There are many possible methods to try to resolve the problem without using Safe Mode. However
Keep your eyes on it that sometimes get you lucky and something works partially allowing
Safe mode, and then those that can be completed and access Windows.

Also use Google search. Black screens are extremely difficult to manage.

  • XP won't boot up - just a blank black screen before "Newspapers Windows" appears.

    I hooked up another hard drive and allowed the error checking in the tools to check it out when you restart.  That's when it started.  When I remove the player, all right.  There are actually 2 discs and they both have the same problem I only activated this control on one of them.  So obviously the problem is not hardware.  I could check with various utilities and everything was fine.  I can't imagine THAT XP has a 2 TB disks problem dealing with.  I should also mention that previously used on Linux.

    Any ideas anyone?  Anywhere to check to disable this check on restart thing?

  • Start window manager: sometimes when I started my PC I have a black screen with the Windows boot manager at the top.

    Sometimes when I start my PC I have a black screen with the Windows boot manager at the top.  Although there are several options available, that nothing happens no matter what keys I hit and the only option is to shut down the computer and restart completely.  Sometimes the Boot Manager page turns and my office sometimes opens fine.  I've updated with everything Microsoft has Windows Vista and I still get this screen.  Anyone has any ideas.

    Do a startup repair and see if that fixes it:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  • Windows XP Home, black screen after loading screen (seemingly unique problem)

    Hi all

    I am trying to upgrade to service pack 3 Windows XP home on my old computer from eMachines T2838 and experiences a @# *! a time to do it. This is the third time in 2 days I had to wipe my HD and re - install XP, because of some problem installing updates which has damaged the operating system.

    Here's my current situation.

    Yesterday, after the failure of the HD for the second time (computer got stuck "performing cleanup" on SP2, forced a reboot, got a restart loop after, would not load Windows) I installed XP, update to SP2, then downloaded the service pack real itself. He has installed fine and asked me to restart.  I respected that, and the computer restarted. As soon as the "Loading" screen popped up, I knew that something had gone wrong.  When I started on the desk, I was stuck in 640 x 480 w / 4 - bit color graphics mode. Could not be set. So, I thought, okay, let me reboot Windows and see if he "rediscovered" the integrated video card. Well, I restarted, and the "loading screen jumped into the appropriate color mode / resolution, so I thought that I was in the green."  Well, after that, all I get is a black screen. No message 'No signal!' or anything like that.  Even tried a few instructors that I have. Looked around online, has seen the references to "Last known good Configuration" 'safe Mode' etc etc.

    I tried all the options on the list of F8. Either she freezes at Mup.sys xxxxxx or boots up to the loading screen and then goes black after. I can hear the HDD does it's thing for a bit, so I don't know it is loading this screen "check to activate the automatic updates" which appears after SP2 is installed, but I can't.

    Use the recovery console, (did the repair option the first time after it kept restarting, Windows took 5 minutes to start an IE6 get locked every opening, so had to wipe and re-install) typed "chkdsk/p/r" and he did his thing for about 30 minutes, rebooted and still have the same problem.

    I don't know what else to do. I REALLY want to redo everything this a fourth time, only to to have screw it up once again, and I don't know how many times I can use the key I have on the back of the computer.  (Using a retail disk and an OEM key, Finder product key changer.) -A Microsoft Support Officer showed me that one. Quite handy.

    People do you have any suggestions?  I would really appreciate it.

  • Pavilion dv6-6047 cl: black screen before opening of session in Windows 10

    Recently, I upgraded my laptop Pavilion dv6-6047 cl of Windows 7-64 bit for Windows 10-64 bit. The only thing I changed from the original specification (see link below), it is that I bought a Samsung SSD 850 EVO 500 GB. In Windows 7, everything was fine, the boot to make up to 8 sec. Now she starts, but stay for more than one minute, stuck in a black screen for the login screen to appear.
    I tried to update the graphics driver, but nothing happened.

    The processor driver is up-to-date.

    The SSD driver is too far.

    I rolled back to Windows 7 and everything went back to normal. And then upgraded to Windows 10 once again, everything goes black again.
    Please help me, because my SSD is worthless with a + 1 minute boot.

    Thanks in advance!

  • Black screen on startup - Windows 7 Professional

    I recently installed Windows 7 Professional on my laptop MSI, 4 GB of RAM, processor Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU, 32-bit operating system, Nvidia GeForce 9600 m GT 512 MB.

    When I turn it on, there is all black screen. I pull the battery (until I discovered F8) and it starts in safe mode with network. Then, I reboot safe mode and windows load correctly. Two days before the blackout, the cursor would freeze too.

    Note I've read related topics, like the one in which it is suggested to disable the graphics drivers, and I recently downloaded new ones from Nvidia, but it started two or three days later, so I doubt it has to do with the graphics drivers.

    Should I try with the system restore or perhaps reinstall Windows?

    Yesterday, I found and installed both updates Optional:

    1 Realtek driver update for Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller

    2 update for Windows 7 (KB976422)

    In any case, this morning, the windows loading straight, so with this optional support, the problem could be solved. I hope that nothing will change in the future, however.

    -You can find all the necessary drivers in the section download the drivers on the Toshiba site-> http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

  • Black screen T400 with windows xp

    a friend of mine gave me his Lenovo T400 to install Windows XP on it

    He previously worked fine with windows 7 and 8.1

    then it starts in preinstallation of windows XP screen, it formats the hard drive and as usual instalation automatically restarts after this BUT his black screen, lights and sounds show that it works and goes to the next screen BUT the screen is still black. Put power off then turn on again does not display any image of the screen. Open he removed the battery of the Bios, turned upward after a few pennies and turned off it starts it reset the bios.

    So now it has photo and it goes on the next screen Windows instalation as usual, after the installation of devices and other things, it restarts automatically as usual BUT there is NO new screen, black screen, lights and sounds new show that its loading windows end instalation screen, but no image on the screen.

    Reset the BIOS again, it starts normally, and this time shows BSoD with code 0x7B, after once again the BSOD screen black

    Maybe it's a setting in the BIOS? tried to install with the AHCI drivers and tried to install without driver for Compatible, what else is there? Updated the bios to the latest version, same result.

    To say again - it works very well with other windows, but XP should be installed

    There is a manual for installing XP on these laptops, I have not read, sorry

    so the black screen is because of the switchable graphics option in the Bios that is not supported by XP

    It works fine now after a whole an integrated and disabled for OS detection framework
