    External technicians failed to find a problem on the log and suggested Windows Reset. Uploaded Dell drivers [PC only 9 months old], did a Windows Pro reset two days ago. Went off for lunch, came back same thing again. So frustrating and fed up.

    WIndows 10, screen goes black after a couple of minutes and have to restart computer

    Hi, I have upgraded to windows 10 and shortly (couple of minutes) after the computer boots to desktop the screen goes black and I can't do anything but turn off or restart.

    In safe mode it doesn't turn off.

    I use the hide updates patch on my gpu drivers and have set metered connection to on however the screen still goes black as if it's installing a gpu driver that doesn't work.

    Any suggestions please?

    Cheers

    windows 10 black screen after update and after leaving PC to sleep?

    I've tried the steps you suggested but they don't seem to work. The black screen I'm facing is only when i try to shut down or leave my PC to sleep and its completely unresponsive no cursor or anything. I've tried things others have suggested but they don't
    seem to work, Is there anything else?

    Thanks for your help so far!
