  1. Black screen going on and off on desktop


    My computer died recently and when i plugged it in and turned it back on and typed in my password it started to go to a black screen, then it would load and then go back to my desk top screen. I could open chrome and it stays open, but when i try to open control panel and other things like files or pictures, they get closed out when the screen goes black. I tried to restore it back to the last restore point and that didnt fix the issue. I havnt recently downloaded anything so i really dont know why my computer is doing this. If there isnt any solution for this i would be fine with factory resetting but i dont know how to with out control panel being closed out when the screen goes black. PLEASE HELP

    :)
