y510p 8.1 Windows black screen

I tried to update my y510p to windows 8.1 twice now. But once installation is complete I get a black screen with a cursor. I tried to start in safe mode to install the right drivers, but it won't let me. It automaticaly boots and restore the previous version of windows.

So I'm wondering if I should take a few precautions before upgrading to win8.1 (such as the installation of the win8.1 display drivers?)

Perhaps a better question is if I sould all be updated to windows 8.1?

I solved the problem by restoring my computer to factory settings since its still relatively new, do not know what the real solution would have been nice for those who do not want to restore the computer.

  • New installation 8.1 Windows black screen after logo

    I met a black screen when installing Windows from a USB Pendrive 8.1 after the logo at the beginning.

    After research on internet and do not find the answer, I had a bright idea: format my hard drive (SSD), I had Windows 7 installed on it.

    1. I removed the hard drive from my laptop.
    2. I attached my drive to a USB adapter and removed the partitions on the disk with 'Create and format hard disk partitions' on another PC.
    3. Replace the hard drive in the laptop.
    4. Tried again and the installation works well!

    whenever I start cold blue windows logo appears and the device goes into screen black.

    It remains so for at least 1 minute and then the login screen appears. All the drivers are updated day/install.

    I tried to do a clean 10 x 64 Windows and installed well installation and rebooted.

    This time it was much faster (a few seconds) and I went into the Device Manager.

    I could see that Windows installed the drivers for various devices like the unknown devices disappeared one by one.

    Some time after (with 1 remaining peripheral unknown not related to the problem) it restarts.

    Hello

    To restore your system check with support of the manufacturer of the system as they all have their own methods.
    (See InPlace upgrade / repair Installation and recovery following Options.)

    You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer or an external hard drive enclosure, then
    saving them. Do this using several methods to redundantly. Of course, a real computer
    Shop or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

    ================================================================

    Some of them may not work now however they are abandoned in just in case get you some
    access.

    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.

    First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

    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.

  • Windows black screen after update.

    Hello:

    I think that my computer had an automatic update in Tuesday night / Wednesday morning. (I heard him restart in the middle of the night). Everything seemed well Wednesday morning the computer was working and I got the video.

    I tried to start my computer last night (Thursday) and I got a black screen. No splash screen. No bios. Nothing.

    Windows starts even though, as I can hear the chime start.

    This same problem happened to me once before, about two or three months ago and I called EVGA for help. At the time, I had a spare video card, and the map screen with this card. I have currently a GTX 280 the older map was also a NVIDIA, but I don't remember the model number, possibly 7950.

    We used the sweeper driver and reinstalled the NVIDIA drivers. I was then able to get the computer to display with the 280.

    I don't have immediate access to a spare video card to try this out, so I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions on how I can solve this problem.

    I think getting a small hard drive, cheap and loading linux on it and see if I can not do load like that. I could probably run Sweeper driver on the other drive in this way as well.

    What is troubling to me, it's that I can't even in the BIOS when this happens. I don't understand why the video card isn't some "bootstrap" he can in the case of a conflict situations pilot to display the BIOS screen at least, but this isn't your problem.

     

     

    I also want to know how I can disable these automatic updates. Really don't want to mess with Windows driver configurations.

     

     

    Hello!

    Thanks for posting here to the Microsoft Answers forum.

    Drivers are optional updates and do not install unless you click on it to install it. You can disable automatic updated since the center of the action in your taskbar as a flag. But it is not recommended. Now what you can do is press f8 when your computer restarts a few options expected pop up, try to start in VGA mode or low resolution, you should be able to start windows now, with no drivers for the graphics loaded. try rolling back the drivers then or uninstall in Control Panel of-> programs. Reinstall (download from the nvidia site)

    or

    start your installation Windows dvd by inserting it and restarting your computer (set your boot options to boot from the CD/DVD in BIOS), and then use the system under repair restore

    Letus know the result.

    Hello

    I have a MBP 15 "mid 2015 16G with AMD R9 M370X i7.

    I've been running bootcamp with Windows 10 installation for about a month now without any problems.  However, yesterday 10 Windows started and has been blocked in a black screen (before any screen logo or connection win) with the CPU works hard and hot.

    1. I tried to restart some time hold button / stop and start with the option key, key and then selecting the windows bootcamp partition but it drove the same black screen with CPU hot work in the background.

    2. I can always start OSX fine during this period.

    3. I tried to leave in the black screen for a good 10 minutes, but it does not change and the MBP gets really hot.

    4. I tried clearing NVRAM with Boot option + command + P + R

    5 I can't in Windows 10 safe mode using F8 or FN + F8 after you select windows to boot manager (starting with the down option).  Am I missing something here?

    I don't have a copy of Installer windows 10 with me right now unless someone can tell me how to create one under OSX.

    I searched on the internet forum and apple, but have not found a solution that works for me.  Many speak of win10 black screen with cursor showing, but my question is just a black screen with no cursor.

    You have a black screen with or without power adapter, both? If 10 Windows does not start correctly three times, it should bring up the recovery console. Windows automatic updates are enabled? You have created/activated Windows system restore points?

    > When it installs drivers crashing into the graphics driver
    You n t need to install all the drivers after installing the recovery disc. The recovery disk installs OS Win and also drivers needed!

    If you want to install non-Toshiba drivers, you will have to do it in the Device Manager.
    You must use the Advanced installation procedure and have point to the driver files (ini files) that you have downloaded and stored on the HARD drive.
    You have simply force windows to select this driver.
