Hi
After following both these methods and unfortunately neither work for me.
I still receive a black screen with the courser and have for the past week.
Before I manage to get it back via restore points, but yesterday windows decided to delete all my restore points so not I am stuck again.
Any more ideas or is a complete reset unavoidable?
Thanks

levi says
hey im a little confused about the 2nd method. how are you supposed to run tha app if the computer is blackscreened?
Admin says
Yes well first, method works for all you can try that.
spittnacid says
Trying this now and will report back. My issue I believe is caused by malware “search-results.com” but i cannot confirm this, however it started shortly after my search bar changed and chrome options stopped working. Also as someone reported above, all my restore points save one, was deleted and that restore point did not help. Startup Repair also fails with StartupRepairOflline Autofailover NoRootCause. Luckily i am able to boot into safemode to type this and go through these steps. Thanks for the info. Fingers crossed XD
Elena C says
Thank you! It worked great. Yesterday I tried but I think I wrote the commands in cmd in the wrong way. Pervex didn’t work for me either, nor system restore nor deleting explorer.exe from Task Manager.
Braden says
SO i don’t understand this, my computer is black screened so i can’t click the start menu, i also can’t press the key for start menu. So it is impossible.
Admin says
It’s possible you can switch safe mode and then follow all steps.
Pt says
I have a 64 bit processor, will it work to just change 32 to 64? Also, when i reach the command prompt through my recovery disc ( cannot boot even to safe mode) i get
x:\Sources>
How do I get to c?
Buck says
Sorry…Im with Braden. I don’t see how I can get to any screen at all and attempt your fix. The reason I am here is because I Cannot get windows to start! No F8, no alt F10. So how do I get to the start menu in the first place? I would love to know.
Wills says
Hello there, i both solutions, and it didnt work. Just before i get the “Welcome” it looses the connection to the screen, then after 20 secounds it comes back and goes “Welcome” then when it logs in the screen goes black but with signal this time, i tryed ctrl – alt – del. it didnt work, any suggestions?
Thank you very much.
Sandra says
Hi,
my monitor comes to life when I first start the PC, then goes black after the Windows logo. I can hear windows load through the speakers (sounds and all), so I know that it’s actually booting. I have found that pushing the monitor power button repeatedly (off and on) eventually stabilizes the monitor and it stays up.
Would your solution work in my case as well?
Lalit Suryan says
Hi sandra it may be different issue you can check all cables of monitor are properly connected or may be monitor issue try to connect your pc with any other LCD or Monitor if it work, so simple your monitor is not working properly.

I got black screen today. I checked my restore points and I have a critical update last 29th. I used system restore the an earlier manual restore point and that didn’t fix my problem. What I do to get into the login screen is I hit CTRL+ALT+DEL and I am able to get the screen where I have to enter my password. It takes a while because my laptop for sluggish.
I tried the 1st method but that hasn’t worked either. What do we do after “chkdsk /f /r ” do we simply close the cmd Window?
Acar B says
It takes a while because my laptop *is sluggish.
I tried the 1st method when I was able to get into Normal Windows but after my laptop reboots the Check Disk doesn’t run because I get a black screen. I tried doing steps 1 and 2 in Safe Mode and when I rebooted the Check Disk finally ran! This fixed my Black Screen problem (hopefully for good). Thank you!

Hi, any troubleshooting tips on getting to the advanced boot menu to load safe mode? The computer whirrs away for a few seconds when I hit the power button, then nothing more. It just sits idle and with a black screen. No cursor, no advanced mode, no windows logo. Zilch!
bob h says
Hi, my acer aspire 55741z has the same problem as samantha’s m/c.
Pressing start button just activates the fan. the hdd flickers, goes off and the machine shuts down – within seconds.
The screen remains completely black.
It will then repeat this cycle forever.
I’m thinking it’s a graphics processor problem.
Anyone have any ideas to solve this. ?
ayush says
black screen even in safe mode…..
alt+ctrl+del results in a option to start task manager………but after clicking it again a black screen……
pls help me
Anh says
It worked for me. Thank you!
Ryckutis says
These did not solve anything to me. So i rewrote my graphics drivers using safe mode. And it works now fine for me.
Jk says
Thank you so much! this fix really helped me.
Dustin Evans says
Five years of all linux computers in the home and not a single headache; not a single headache until I get a call to fix someones computer running windows. I don’t even let a new computer boot for the first time before I replace the operating system I paid for. It’s time to ditch the cisc platform and create a unix derived windows platform. No one ever has problems with windows, they have problems because of windows. Ubuntu or one of it’s derivatives is easy for a windows user to use, perfect for a transition.
Morten Holm Hvass says
Thank you very much, first step worked even though it said “Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them” going to go through the logs and see if i can do anything for the remaining corrupted files
