    Pray, tell me. The screen is dead black - enlighten me as to how I do anything when a hard boot gives nothing. Removing the battery and restarting does nothing. Trying to reboot in safe mode does NOTHING!!!! I hate your stupid updates, they ALWAYS cause issues. I never asked for it, it just decided to kick me out of what I was doing and now my laptop is DEAD! THANKS- thanks so flipping much for all your super duper updates from your genius staff!!!

  2. Black Screen During Driver Update OK, so your driver update obliterated my laptop. How am I supposed to easily reinstall from... :(

    I reinstalled my laptop back to factory settings, and I wanted to update the GPU drivers. But when I try, the screen turns black during the update, but the computer is still running. I was forced to turn off the computer and turn it back on. I used system restore, so now I'm using the default drivers that came with the laptop. Can you guys suggest anything?
