Black screen when logged into Vista

Hello

When I log in, I get a black screen with a cursor. Right now I am in safe mode to use this laptop.

I don't remember install or update anything on computer that might have caused this problem.

I also tried to open the Windows Task Manager and go to the processes tab and click right on the process explorer.exe and end, but I'm still having the same problem.

I'd appreciate any help.

  • Black screen after logging into the domain account

    OK, it's making me nutty and I don't know what to do.

    Configuration: SB Server 2008 running domain controller.  4 client machines connected, 2 XP, 2 running Vista Ultimate SP1.  XP machines work fine (of course).  Vista machines are in the tank.
    Two Vista machines are about 2 weeks with the only changes to the installation of the factory Office, Norton 360 and printer drivers.  Both machines exhibit the same symptoms at the same time:
    (1) after the restart, each machine running Vista for 10 minutes exactly, saying "Please wait...". "before the screen"press Control-Alt-Delete.  Safe Mode boot normally.  Examine the event log, I see entries on running a startup script of some kind that took 600 seconds (10 minutes).  This of course comes from the domain controller.  What is this and how do I get rid of him?
    (2) after finally journaling, tries to connect the domain account ("domain\username") result in a "Welcome" screen... ', followed by a black screen with a mouse cursor which is mobile.  It is a permanent condition.  I let the machine sit overnight and nothing changes.  I get an occasional popup on the black screen of Norton saying it runs background tasks and that's all, so I know the machines are running.  Pressing Ctrl-alt-delete is * not * bring up the Security screen.  It doesn't do anything.
    Note that connect to a * local * account ("machinename\name") works very well.  I have a desktop, icons, everything.  I even connected locally and made a "change user" to a domain account, and now the machine is stuck again to a black screen with mobile mouse.
    Both machines have worked very well for two weeks.  When I reboot safe mode and remove the computer domain, everything works well, probably because I'm just connect to a local account again.
    I did * no. * change to group policy.  The server works with all settings by default wrt updates, etc.  I did not have any mods system to customers other than to join them to the domain.
    I searched online, and I see other people have this problem, but I can't find a definitive solution.  I tried to restart by using the last known good configuration, but I think that the system is of the opinion that the last logon was successful, which is not good.  To return to the last restore Point is not good.  Both machines has stagnated at the same time, which implies a problem across the field.
    Please don't tell me that I have to spend $200 and one day online with technical support to get an answer to this.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

  • Start-up problems: I have a black screen when I log in the menu

    When I start my computer, I get a black screen when I log in the menu. I can still access the computer on safe mode, but I can't find a solution. Antivirus Avira found no detection, so I don't think that's associated virus.

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

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

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    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.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    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.

  • import FLV files results in a black screen when he's on stage

    import FLV files results in a black screen when he's on stage. Why is this happening? I have a swf file, then using swf video converter convert. I then import the video and when it is put on the stage she translates into a black screen that had no pictures. This happens even when I play the swf file.

    The converted file works fine when I open it with a Media Player for this indicates clearly that the flash is having a problem.

    The SWF-> Video converter is very certainly at fault for your problems. That's why I think you should either use ActionScript to import the SWF file to play or import once in a new document and export it as a video directly from flash. I used FLV for a long time and I've seen a lot of questions. This is no easy task to convert a SWF to a video. I think it makes more sense to let Adobe do the work, it was designed to do.

  • Black screen when loading apps on the device Dev Alpha

    Dear all,

    can someone give me advice on the question? (I have found no similar post, so please forgive me if duplicate messages...)

    My configuration:

    -Alpha OS Dev device: 10.0.4.197

    -SDK Webworks 1.0.2.9

    I always get a black screen when I deploy & launch applications for the test (I use a debugging token)... I'm afraid that I may have problems of compatibility between the version of the OS and SDK Webworks... I'm about to upgrade the unit right now, but if anyone else has experienced the same problems, please let me know! Any help is very appreciated!

    Moreover, the two training simulators & VMWare work very well...

    Thank you very much

  • Black screen when launching the virtual desktop

    I have a user who gets a black screen when you connect to their virtual desktop (linked clone).  I tried to delete the profile and the regeneration it with no luck.  It seems that I'm in the office and I can send Ctrl + Alt + Delete to start the Task Manager, but it's just a black screen.  I tried to change the RDP protocols, but the results are the same.  Any suggestions?

    Thanks for your answer "vcpguy".  The solution was to delete the profile and recompose the link clones (specialized basin).  I'm just assuming recomposing would have solved the problem since that removes the profile completely unlike a refresh settings of I tried first.

  • Black screen when closing and activating/deactivating my admin user account - Vista Business 32 bit

On the contrary, my Admin on my user account, this can take up to 15 sec. During this time of waiting, I have only a black screen (no dekstop).

    Thanks for your help!

    Hello Ramaflore,

    If I understand correctly, you saw this black screen problem before a format.  After format and reinstall Windows, you still see the behavior of the black screen.

    This means two things:

    1. There is a program that was previously installed and has been reinstalled and that is the cause.
    2. The hardware is at fault.

    We will perform a clean boot to remove all third-party software startup that can interfere with the normal operation of the machine:

    Secondly, I would recommend running the diagnostics of equipment provided by your manufacturer.

    Let us know.

    Best regards
