  1. Grey or black sometimes blocks all screen on start


    I've been getting a grey or black area covering all the screen sometimes when I start my computer. I haven't been able to recognize if there's a pattern to when it appears and when it doesn't. My solution all this time has been rebooting until it lets me in.

    I thought it's probably an update that went wrong, so I reinstalled windows without the last updates and it didn't make any difference. Then installed all the updates and the same thing is happening. Disabled some applications on start up, but nothing is solving the problem.

    Does anyone have this issue? or maybe already solved it? Grey or black sometimes blocks all screen on start :(
