    Black Screen with Cursor after Windows Boot Up Screen


    Hello today I was using my computer today and when I restarted it the screen goes black and has a cursor after the windows boot screen. I've tried to get into task manager, but it wont show up. I tried pressing control alt delete and nothing shows up. Going to the BIOS screen works fine. Any help with this will be very much appreciated.

    :)

    Black screen after 'Starting Windows' sequence

    Sounds like the old... windows black screen of death.

    Try this quoted from "VisiHow" article "Repair Windows 7 Black Screen of Death":

    They, also, have some other options there, too.
    Google search and you will find a lot of the "Windows Black Screen of Death with cursor" fixes.

    Black Screen after Log on


    So this is not a BSOD ? Have a Windows 10 disc or USB Flash Drive made ? How are you getting to task manager Ctrl.+Alt+Del ? Any cursor on screen ?

    Black Screen with Cursor after Windows Boot Up Screen

    Black Screen and Cursor...

    Hello all. Currently am trying to fix a Toshiba Satellite for someone. Upon booting the computer all I got was a black screen with the mouse pointer. After waiting a few minutes nothing happened. I confirmed with the owner that I can do a clean install of windows as she hasn't used the computer in months and has nothing on it of use. So I popped in my Windows 7 Disk and the "Press any key to boot..." message displayed, so I did. After that it said it was loading files and whatnot and here I am looking at the same black screen with a cursor. Am wondering where to go from here?

    I have tried booting in safe mode with no luck. Haven't tried safe mode with Command prompt.
    Tried doing a memory diagnostic just because with no luck.

    I found a multitude of answers online but all of them vary. One said that the guy just waited about two hours and then everything appeared. He said that it was running EXTREMELY slow and that after the install all was normal again.

    So am I looking at a waiting game here or what?

    UPDATE: Tried booting with low resolution settings and that didn't work either.
    Tried booting in safe mode with command prompt and that didn't work
    Tried booting using last known good configuration and that didn't work
