• Black screen on startup after windows update 7 crashed

  Hello

  Hope you can help.

  I have windows 7 64 bit installed and everything was fine until last night.

  It seems a windows update has been downloaded and when I turned my PC it was installing the update - the projection of the usual blue installation screen updates etc.

  It took a long time and it seems to me he had crashed, has frozen I couldn't move the mouse.

  Yes I know it says that you should not turn the PC while the update was the installation, but for me, it seemed like it had crashed and frozen upward.

  So I decided turn off the pc and he left the next day to check the pc.

  I turn on the pc and select windows 7 in my list - I have Setup dual boot

  I get the message that windows did not start properly, so I select boot normally - I get the swirly logo appear and then just a black screen with the cursor that responds to moving the mouse.

  There's just the black screen with the cursor and pass to the next step of the login screen.

  I think because of the windows don't update not install correctly and turning the pc off this contributed to hang on the black screen.

  I tried to start in safe mode to see if the same problem which he passes, I can connect via the SafeMode very well and have the available login screen and entered fine windows via safe mode.

  I get ideas as to what I can do to solve this black screen?

  To confirm once again, this has happened after a windows update tries to install, but as I felt it had crashed I turned off the pc - no drivers graphics etc. have been installed for a long time - only this update of windows

  I hope you can help, thank you very much

  EDIT: Just to add that I tried to do a restore point, but as I turned it off I don't have the option to do so.

  Hi Martin,

  Thanks for the reply.

  I tried something last night after going through loads of forums.

  I tried F8 for advanced startup options, and I'll give you good last thinking setting up a go, known guess what, it worked!

  I was able to return in Office windows as usual, I even installed the update that it crashed on the last time, well, I think that he reinstalled the last update, it crashed on... anyway, I think I'm back to normal, but will check it out tonight but if you are still having problem try what I did It can work for you.

• Only get a black screen on startup of Windows

  I have the most recent 5K 27 "iMac with a Radeon R9 M380.

  I want to install Windows 10 with an ISO and the process seemed all fine, even managed to get to the point connect you with my Microsoft account.

  But then after that I got a black screen.  Off and then restarted back in the Windows partition.  I get the small circle of loading Windows but then after that another black screen.

  I was wondering anyone knows it?

  You can start Windows safe mode? You have probably installed a wrong driver GPU.

• Satellite A100: Black screen on startup of windows

  Hello everyone,

  my screen doesn't show anything until windows XP starts. No toshiba start screen, no boot menu. The rest works batteries, no errors. I would like to have the normal start with: "press del to enter setup" etc.

  Thanks for the help

  Hello

  Something like press DELETE to enter Setup does not appear because usually, at the beginning, only the Toshiba start screen should appear.
  If you want to get into the BIOS you press "F2". Pressing the DEL you will not enter the BIOS. It s a notebook, not a desktop PC, my friend ;)

  What you can do is to disable Quiet Boot in the BIOS. Then active diagnosis and summary screen appears.

• After the updates of windows, the computer stops responding with a black screen at startup of the system

  Original title: Windows XP does not start after the update, no error message

  Has made no changes to the system, but the last thing that happened was an update of Windows security on stop.

  Now when I boot, the BIOS p.o.s.t. shows good HDs, good DVD-Rom, RAM, but Windows never starts, goes just a black screen, HDs are not accessed.

  -F8 does nothing, can't use the last known good Config or Mode safe

  -Change boot order in the BIOS to boot from the Windows XP DVD, hoping to get the recovery console, but the same thing: black screen, no attempt to spin-up DVD or HDs.

  -Removal of mobo battery to reset the CMOS, no joy.

  -Checked and re checked all connections inside.

  -Stripped devices and added one at a time, no joy.

  -Traded-in an old video card in case it was difficult to generate the higher res gfx, no joy.

  I was construction/upgrade / repair my own PC for 3 decades and can usually solve the problem and fix it myself, but this one me completely baffled.

  Any suggestions?

• Pavillion dv6 6b15ed: Driverupdate to fix the black screen at startup windows 10!

  Hello

  Question:

  Is there a new driver is released for my AMD Radeon HD card 6755 2? (double grafics)

  Because the latest driver causes a black screen at startup. Sequence: wenn turn on u see hp and that start-up logo win 10 after that it crashes on a black screen for about 2 minutes, then start 10. (about 2, 5 minutes later)

  I have now installed a windows 8 (issues) driver and windows starts in 6 seconds (with normal hard drive).

  I can't play the games but the bootspeed is good.

  So is there a fix or is there is 1 entry?

  TNX

  While the video card is not supported with the latest drivers.

  You can update as much if you want to, but isn't is not helping.

  Even in charge AMD said that this card is not supported with drivers.

  But today, I tried 1 times more, I used the old driver AMD_Display_13.352.

  With the first reboot, it was still black and some errors of the pilot, but after that the second quick start installation restarts!

  Appearance of the logo Windows 10 only 3 or 4 seconds and start immediately, without black screen and I got sound, video and video tube work as well.

  If other people having the same problem download Drivethelife and download the old pilot 13.352 and see for yourself.

  Make sure u delete all drivers previously installed with DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) of guru3d site.

  Almost forgot: I also disabled windowsupdate to prevend install other drivers (new).

• my screen shows a black screen and says to enter the system password, how do I reinstall windows if the pc is back to factory settings and wonder a system password

  Don't let me do anything, as soon as I turn on my pc, it goes to the black screen telling me to enter the system password

  It looks like your BIOS password "may" be set.

  What brand of computer do you have?

  If you have an antistatic grounding cable and are comfortable opening your case, you "can" be able to follow a procedure in the manual of your motherboard to reset such password.   If you choose to do so, please be careful because you do so at your own risk.

• Windows 8 starts with black screen on startup.

  Original title: BOOT WIN 8 on TOSHIBA SATELLITE

  Hi - I've updated to Win 8 on my Toshiba Satellite laptop.  Now, when I start the laptop, it shows the initial screen of Windows but will not perform the process to the lock screen or splash screen.  The screen is black and goes no further.  I have to press the off button and hopefully get to go in standby mode (i.e. when the power led is flashing).  So, I press the button to wake that then displays the lock screen.

  Someone has ideas on what setting could be the cause.  I have looked in the trunk of the BIOS but can't find anything.  Also can't find anything obvious in settings PC Win

  Thank you

  Richard

  Hi Richard,

  I would be grateful if you could answer the following questions:

  1. You have installed the latest drivers for Windows 8?
  2. What is the model number for Toshiba Satellite laptop?

  If you get a black screen after upgrade to Windows 8, it might be due to an outdated or incompatible graphics card driver. Update to the latest version of the display driver should fix this.

  Try to remove all external devices connected to the computer and then try to start the computer and check if it works. Follow these methods and check if that helps:

   

  Method 1: To resolve this problem, update the site Web of Toshiba video card driver.

  Check out these Microsoft items for additional reference:

  Download and install the drivers

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-8/get-best-display-monitor

  Method 2: I suggest to follow the suggestions provided in this Microsoft KB article and check if this can help:

• B540 TDR and black screen on startup

  Hi all, I bought a B540 in April a power works fine until end of July when it began to show the error "display driver has stopped working and has recovered." a few days later I let him (I have need as a wifi station to connect devices remove) and after a few hours of work, when I came back, the screen was off and there wa no way to turn it on. I press the power button for a few seconds to turn off the pc and he died. When I turned on, the computer started but the screen is off (not the 'lenovo' logo was shown on the eve) but everything else seemed to work (play plug/unpluging usb external hard drive the sound of the carachteristic). I turned off again and wait ten minutes before the market again, this time above the 'lenovo' logo was shown, but it seems that the pc failed to boot win 8. I unlplugged everything, removed the power cord, wait an hour and after that all started ok but the error message "display driver stop" was still there. After this date the computer randomly starts ok or with the screen. Given that I do not use it intensively Isuspected some windows update to cause this strange behavior and I'm trying to use a point of restoration, until July 17, but the problem was still there. Then I removed all recent windows update of June on, and I realized that in one case, it was not possible (i.e. the "remove/uninstall" button not showed that KB). I googled around and found the subject KB has been reported to broken system and the only way to react was to use a DOS command to reatore a new installation of the system. I did and actually everything works ok for 2 days (one day, I actually use the PC all day to upload stuff to iternet it to work). Unfortunately, after that day, everything seems to repeat: new 'pilot not resposinding to display' and a black screen at startup.

  Please consider that the system is quite new and clean (only 3/4 months of life) and everything works fine until end of July. What do you suggest me?

  
  

• Power outage during Vista SP2 install; black screen on startup of the PC

  Hello-

  I have a PC desktop Gateway which is no longer start after a power failure has occurred during the installation of Vista SP2. The computer displays the progress at the bottom indicator, then, before that can display the login screen, the screen goes black, with a white cursor. CTRL-Alt-Del and Ctrl-Shift-Esc do nothing.

  I tried without success to the following:

  * Safe Mode/Safe Mode control guest - boots to black screen new
  * Startup Repair - told me there is nothing wrong
  * System Restore - tells me there is no available restore points
  * System restore the OEM DVD - can not find hard drive
  * Re-install this is disabled because I can't start Windows Vista-

  There are * all * options other than wiping the disc/lose all my data? The PC is in a remote area and backup drive is not an easy thing to achieve.

  The PC is no longer under warranty of the bridge, and I understand that Microsoft supports is no longer installs OEM of Vista.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  I can tell you how to make bootable disks, but you already have a disk.

  He has changed since good means of XP repair install from disk by booting from it.

  I would add that info to disk Bootable repair, just in case your DVD is a factory of one computer.

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-Vista.html

  It's Vista only repair installation option these days.
  It must be switched on!
  Not much use, is it!

  Good luck with it.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

  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.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

  Above information 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.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista Startup Repair disk.

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

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  See you soon.

• Black screen at startup, unable to boot from the CD

  I did something wrong on my Thinkpad T43 2668, now I have Black Boot screen cannot Access IBM, can not press a function key, cannot start from the CD.  Here's what I did:

  1 got unwanted winxp sp3 updates automatic, then restored to the permeable point via Windows XP system restore, then, cannot start system; cannot boot from the Windows XP CD

  2 2 demarrer start from Linux Live CD, format hard drive and install ubuntu, hidden Partition of domain is not deleted, always there;

  3. can start Linux OS, but black screen on startup. There is no way to see what's happening at startup; Pressing a key of function or IBM bottons returns no result, always boot in Linux;

  4. cannot boot from any CD bootable legal except Ubuntu Live CD;

  5. no means of access Bios to set the boot sequence, therefore, cannot boot from USB floppy either.

  Advice is appreciated!

  PS. I tried Linux live CD some time ago before this trouble, click on "help me to boot from CD", got something installed. I guess it's something installed out of the box and that is why now I can boot from a Linux Live CD.
