Windows 10: What’s going on here? I try to rope in my pin to enter and I just get a black screen then...

On restart, I get no Bitlocker PIN request blue screen but I can still enter PIN - How do I get it to show the PIN screen?

This is only an issue on RESTART. When I am powering on from being off, I get the normal blue screen with the PIN request, option to enter the recovery, etc.

When I restart, I watch it close everything, then the screen goes black. My keyboard is backlit so it lights up and that's when I know it is waiting for a PIN. I can enter the PIN blindly, hit enter, and it boots up. Everything works except it doesn't show
the blue PIN screen. I am just estimating when it is ready and entering the PIN.

I have tried a lot of things:

• Updating the BIOS - no change
• Check Windows Update - no updates needed
• Plug the monitor into the built-in graphics adapter (instead of my installed card) - No change
• Scan system files - No change and everything good
• Turn off fast boot - No change
• Tried this as suggested on numerous sites: bfsvc.exe %windir%\boot /v
• There was another command-line approach that I can't recall
• Installing the driver for my monitor - no change

Anyone have experience with the blank, black PIN request screen? I'd love to have a normal PIN request.

If this doesn't work, I may remove the PIN but it looks like that's complicated.

Thanks!

Can't enter PIN for Headset

I'm grateful for your replies. I obviously haven't done a good job of explaining. Here are snips of the windows involved. I have done all the steps suggested, but I can't directly enter the PIN in the larger window. That seems to be my only problem. Plantronics hasn't answered yet, but I'll hope they come through.
