If it were a hardware issue, the problems wouldn't have stopped. I am suspecting that it is not a hardware issue since all was good for a while when you took out the GPU. backup important information to a different drive. If you used a quick pass with the HDD seagate tool, use the extended tests and sector tests. I rarely suggest fresh installs as I am a great fan of solving issues but this is one that you really need to be sitting in front of the computer and physically fixing it to get the best results.
#Windows black screen with cursor install#
But before we continue with all this, let me tell you that 9 out of 10 times, a fresh install of Windows will solve most problems unless it's a hardware issue. Also the option of booting without drivers. I would start with asking if you tried the F8 option of booting the last known good configuration. Ive tried start up repair which says there is no problem, ive tried disabling and uninstalling/re installing the onboard graphics but still the black screen.Īnyone have any ideas short of re installing windows? thanks in advance i am writing this via safe mode as i am still getting the black screen with cursor appear at start up. So now im back to my on board graphics, however this time the problem has not gone. this immediatly booted me to the black screen with cursor so strait away i took it out again.
#Windows black screen with cursor software#
my pc worked fine for a few days and i decided to try and work out if the problem was software of hardware related so i reinstalled my 4870 card. one day i started my pc and was greeted by my 1st 'black screen' with cursor and decided enough was enough and took out my graphics card, leaving only the on board graphics (radeon 4250). (i was using a radeon 4870) i figured this, with the startup problem must be my graphics card on its way out. After restarting on average about 5 times it would then work and my pc would run perfectly.Ībout 2 weeks ago i had a blue screen crash that mentioned something about the display drivers.

it would get as far as the desktop, then freeze the desktop, allowing me to still use my mouse but i couldnt select anything and the system would hang. about a month ago my pc started having errors at bootup. Hi all, heres a quick run down of my problem.
