    Black screen before login with a white loading circle (won’t go away)


    I ran chkdsk c: /f /r /x and it was working well but required a restart as the C drive was in use. I restarted the computer and it finished chkdsk to 100% but now

    is stuck like this. I went to advanced options and attempted to restore the computer to a past version but i got an error message saying it was unsuccessful ending in 7003. What can I do ot resolve this? Ive tried doing windows key + x, U, U but to no avail.

    :)

  3. Black Screen White Circle

    I recently tried to add a GPU into my PC but then changed my mind.

    When I tried to start my PC, a Zoostorm screen shows up then a blank screen with a white rotating circle in the middle. After a few hours of fiddling around somehow (and I don't know how) I managed to get to a blue screen which gave me several options. I
    went about and found a 'Reset PC' option and so I thought that if I factory reset my PC, the problem will fix itself however it has not.

    Now it rotates between a Zoostorm screen and the black screen and white circle (as before) but now also it flashes a blue screen that says 'Installing Windows 64%'. This number has not gone up since the problem has started.

    I would appreciate any help!

    Thanks

    Black Screen White Circle

    Hello Darren,

    Black screens could be encountered when you install Windows 10 for the first time. It usually happens during the Windows 10 install process or after the Windows setup is complete. We would like to ask for additional information. Please provide the following:

    • Which build of Windows 10 are you using? To know about it, hit
      Start, type Winver and then press
      Enter. You could also press Windows Key + R, type
      Winver into the
      Run dialog and press Enter.
    • Did you use or install any third-party application or program on the computer?
    • Were there any changes on your computer prior to the issue? Since you've mentioned that you recently tried to add a GPU on the computer but you changed your mind.

    In the meantime, we suggest that you check this article to troubleshoot black screen or blank screen
    errors. Make sure to select the exact issue or the situation that is very near to the case that you are encountering on your end.

    Looking forward to the requested information and the results of the recommended troubleshooting steps.
