    This black screen happens while trying to upgrade from windows 7 to 10. When you restart the laptop, it undo's the install and puts the computer back to Windows 7. Is there a way to fix that prior to upgrading? The computer boots fine as 7.

    • @AskYourComputerGuy

      Other than making sure updates are done. If you can't get updates because it's W7, maybe roll back to previous build first if possible, then upgrade. Good question worth following up with

    • @AskYourComputerGuy
      @AskYourComputerGuy  2 года назад

      I would download a Windows installer, boot to it and see if it lets you get to a command prompt, where you could run chkdsk, SFC or even system restore. Here's how to do that: ruclips.net/video/5naOPxd6vsI/видео.html

Do you think this is a virus problem?

    • @AskYourComputerGuy
      @AskYourComputerGuy  2 года назад

      With loginui.exe, it could be. I'd definitely run a system file checker (from command prompt, type "SFC /scannow")....but when your login GUI is damaged, you're likely looking at a Windows reload. But you might get lucky, definitely try it first!

    • @AskYourComputerGuy
      @AskYourComputerGuy  3 года назад

      Hard to say. Could be software or hardware at this point. If brand new, I would go ahead and run a factory recovery to eliminate hardware. If it ends up hardware (most likely drive), submit warranty claim or refund/exchange. I always try to eliminate one or the other right off the bat...too many variables otherwise

    What about a black screen with no cursor? A virus attacked and disabled my PC out of the blue yesterday morning. I stupidly let my virus protection lapse because it interferred with my music editing software and I guess that was when the virus struck. I was able to try and get to a restore point. The message I received said the scan was successful. But it was after this that I received a black screen without a cursor. Could it be that there is no longer any Windows software left on the PC? I cannot get into the PC at all at this point. it appears totally disabled. Should I try to reinstall Windows 10? This seems like a more serious problem. Using the Ctrl+Windows icon+Shift +8 command has no effect. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

      So the desktop appears but never loads Windows, and you have no cursor at all? Is that correct? Do you have your files backed up? If so, a Windows refresh (or reinstall in Windows 7 and older) would be my first fix, after getting your files safely off the machine

    • @AskYourComputerGuy
      @AskYourComputerGuy  2 года назад

      Status 50 certainly explains the black screen, and also usually indicates bad drive sectors, which means the hard drive is damaged or failing. Even reinstalling Windows only buys you a finite amount of time. Best bet is to get your data off the drive using Hirens Boot CD XP mode, grab your data and replace that faulty drive.

      You will either need to access the recovery partition on the drive, which could be damaged already, or a Windows 7 CD/DVD installation disc. Just understand that the more your use that drive, the more potential damage you will cause to any files you need to recover. If you don't have a DVD but have a legal copy installed, you can find Windows 7 installation media on just about any torrent site and they will activate legally through Microsoft

      A system restore is always a good option if settings are changed or damaged. It won't remove a virus, but can put Windows back to a state before the virus infected you. At least it gives you the chance to remove it that way

    Hi! So I tried all these except for the last option, because I didn't have thst option available to me, and unfortunately nothing had worked. 🙁 This problem started yesterday when my monitor (a TV kind) couldn't pick up a signal (for some reason it does this sometimes, and sometimes removing and then inserting the HDMI cable fixes it, but if not, I have to force the comiter to shut down).
    Yesterday, it was the second option, but my PC wanted to do a scan due to the way I had shut it down as opossed to the way you SHOULD shut a PC down, which isn't holding down the power button, but seeing my screen was mostly black, I can see where I'd put my cursor to shut it down the normal way.
    Honestly, it could be a virus, and I don't know what to do. 🙁 Can someone help!? 🙏

      @@RakeshKumar-hb5tq well you have to get to the restore menu first. That's the critical part. I usually only go back to the point where I know everything was working properly. System restore points can get damaged or corrupted too, so if you go back to your latest restore point and it doesn't work, try again and go one point further back. And even if Windows says the restore failed, reboot anyway nice seen 1000 times where it tells me it failed and I reboot and everything works. It will even tell me it failed after it successfully boots lol

      I have had to use the "repair your computer" option many times in one sitting, even though Windows didn't act like it was doing anything, often times repeating that over and over again works. There is also the option of removing the c:\windows\software distribution folder (where Windows stores the downloaded updates)...that gets a bit more complicated, but almost always does the trick

      Yes, if you aren't concerned about your personal files. The Windows installer will let you delete partitions during the setup, so that's an extra step you don't need to do, unless you just want to.

    "Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows ok this computer, restart the installation".

      It is not uncommon after a Windows update for this to happen. Many times with the Windows updates you just have to restart multiple times or get into safe mode for Windows to sort of address its own issues. Sometimes it's malware, sometimes Windows. Sometimes it's just updates. You just have to start with the most likely thing and work your way to a solution
