    This has been happening since around August. My computer has been slow/buggy for a while but I've always shrugged it off, I should've investigated sooner though as now im stuck with the black screen of death, no matter the tutorial I find every solution I find ends up with something going wrong. I can't open cntrl alt delete, which gets rid of alot of issues, turning it off and on again doesn't work, repairing the computer doesn't work, even completely wiping the computer doesn't work. I'm assuming there is some form of aggressive malware eating away at important files needed for these, and wi

    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.

    I have the black screen of death and its not fixing.

    Your OP is a little confusing. The title says you get a Black Screen with a cursor. Then you say it is a BSOD, which would be totally different. Then you top it off by saying the computer is a few years old but still works fine.
    You may be mixing up your terms here. A BSOD would be a Blue Screen of Death, which is not a Black Screen. A BSOD is a screen that appears that shows an error message and then usually restarts. There are many reasons for BSOD and it depends on the message.
    A Black Screen of Death is also not what you describe. a Black Screen of Death is total black, no cursor.
    A Black Screen with a cursor means that the computer cannot find the Boot file, either the Windows drive is too low in the boot order, or the boot file is corrupted, or, usually the HDD has failed and needs to be replaced.
    If we are talking about the Dual Booting computer with Windows and Linux, do you get the GRUB Boot loader? Can you boot into Linux? Have you tried to repair GRUB?

    Windows 7 black screen of death

    NO! That is not my problem. I used the link and the computer displayed again that black screen of death :'(
    Anyway it has nth to do with sleep or screen saver. I just restart it and than again it appears the "STARTING WINDOWS" screen. If the black of death happens than it stayies like that for hours without responding. A friend of mine had the same problem, but he could pass through the black of death because he has a much more powerful computer than mine. Anyway, i dunno the answer :S
