Windows 10: Getting a black/blank screen before login

Every time I start windows 10 i get a blank screen before the login screen. If I use the restart button at the from of my PC the Windows 10 splash screen comes on and once I press the space bar I can login.

I did a clean install before all this started. I have used all the other fixes on repairing this ctrl alt del etc. My console monitor samsung works fine.


I've tried safe-mode and have no problems. Checked msconfig it running in normal mode. Used power shell and all the files are fine.


This has been going in since 11\2019 and it's really annoying. In the repair steps that talk about an adapter so DAAA what adapter is this?


If the status light doesn't turn on:

Press and hold the power button on your device for 10 seconds to turn it off, then unplug your adapter. After 30 seconds, plug your adapter back in and restart your device.

If you’re still seeing a black or blank screen, try the steps in Action 2 to check the connection between your device and the monitor or screen.

It would be nice if Windows 10 actually repaired your PC! How that hell do I fix this...........
