    Windows 10 1909 boots to blank screen with arrow


    First off I cant bring up task manager to restart explorer... I wish it was that simple. *Sad

    The computer boots normally but once windows starts to load it hangs at a blank screen with my curser and the spinning circle. I am not able to get to the login screen. No hardware changes have been made recently. I don't think any updates have installed either.

    Prior to it failing to boot windows was in hibernate. when it came out of hibernate it was unstable the task bar kept reloading (explorer kept crashing and reloading I presume). I restarted and it seemed to be fine initially. tried starting outlook and a file was corrupt. tried running a repair on office then launched my browser. The system then crashed again and now wont boot into windows.

    Windows has tried repairing the drive
    I Have tried startup repair
    I have tried booting into safe mode (same thing as windows)

    My guess is windows is too far corrupted and will have to be reinstalled. I am posting to hopefully get a second opinion and maybe some suggestions on what else to try.

    :)

    Windows 10 blank screen after boot-up....

    Anyone have any luck with this ? Windows appears to boot normally until the screen with the little dots on it. Then it goes black , stays that way for a minute and finally logs on. I`ve already googled this and all the answers boil down to two solutions - disable fast startup and change your graphics driver. Neither rly helped for me tho it did seem to be graphics card related.

    Awaiting more expert suggestions from TPU !
