    Keep getting "Blackscreen of Death" - tried many things to fix


    I have been getting a black screen randomly during the use of my pc over the past month. It is nearly impossible to predict when it happens. Sometimes it occurs right when I turn on my pc , sometimes after 2 hours of use. Sometimes it happens when I launch an app, other times while I've been using the app for awhile. The only way that I have discovered to return display to my system is to restart my computer.I have tried many things basically everything google/duckduckgo has recommended. Still no help. I have narrowed the problem down to my graphics card as I disabled it for two days

    :)

  2. Blackscreen after trying to fix system restore

    Hi,

    I've tried to use my restore point but it always failed, so I applied a fix I found.

    However, this caused a blackscreen after rebooting. I've already tried cutting off the power and rebooting multiple times now, it shows the motherboard logo (BIOS works) but when the log in screen should normally appear there's just a blackscreen now. When
    I click around the cursor will appear (occasionally the loading symbol as well) but the blackscreen seems to be infinite.

    Here's what I did (trying to fix system restore) right before the blackscreen problem (I'm not 100% sure that the fix caused the blackscreen but I didn't change anything else recently). I wanna add that I noticed that the fix (original: System Restore failed 0x80070091 in Windows 10 (Solved) • Repair Windows™)
    is only recommended for another error code, mine was a little different. The restore fix isn't the most important problem anymore though, I'd just like to fix the blackscreen.

    1. Hold down the “SHIFT” key and go to Power -> Restart.

    2. After PC restarts, choose: Troubleshoot -> Advanced Options –> Command Prompt.

    – Your computer will restart again –

    3. Choose an Account (with admin privileges), type the password (if any) and click Next.

    4. At command prompt give the following commands in order (press Enter after typing each command):

    diskpart

    list volume

    5. Now locate the Windows Drive letter. (the drive where Windows installed).

    e.g. As you can see at the screenshot bellow, the Windows drive letter is D:

    0x80070091 Windows 10



    6. Type exit to close the DISKPART tool.

    7. Now navigate to the Program Files folder on the Windows drive, by typing the following command: *

    cd /d D:\Program Files

    * Note: Change the letter D according to your case.

    0x80070091 System Restore Windows 10



    8. Give the following command to unhide the WindowsApps folder.

    attrib –h WindowsApps

    rename WindowsApps



    9. Then rename the WindowsApps folder to WindowsAppsOLD, by giving this command:

    ren WindowsApps WindowsAppsOLD

    rename WindowsApps folder Windows 10



    10. Finally type rstrui to start System Restore.

    rstrui



    11. Follow the on screen prompts to restore your system to a previous working state. *

    * Note: After restore, proceed and disable the Windows Updates until Microsoft correct the problem.

  4. Keep getting "Blackscreen of Death" - tried many things to fix

    Blackscreen - Auto-Restart

    Thank you for the suggested 'fixes'. I'll try them after I try Google's Chrome browser. I'm told it's more suited to a desktop environment than the Microsoft EDGE browser (more suited to Tablet use). I don't know if it's related to the "BlackScreen Auto-Restart"
    problem, but hopefully it will reduce/eliminate the "Can't Reach This Page" message which I frequently get using EDGE [I tried restarting my modem and router, as well as clearing browsing history, but the problem persists with EDGE.
