    Windows 10 not booting up - Black screen with cursor


    I shut down my laptop properly - no hard boot - and the next time I turned it on, I got a black screen with the cursor.


    I have tried a bunch of things but to no avail.


    I don't have any peripherals attached.


    Everything was working fine until the last shut down, all drivers were working fine.


    System restore did not work, startup repair did not work, I don't have a recovery drive, it will not boot into safe mode of any kind - safe mode boot does the exact same thing, that is, black screen with cursor only now in lower resolution.


    I have also done a system reset which also did not work, the situation is the same.


    If my hard disk is on it's way out, I think I would've got some error but all works until just before the sign in, after which it's all just black with a cursor.


    Any help would be much appreciated.


    Laptop in question: Asus G551JM


    Was originally Windows 8.1 and now is 10, upgrade was done a while back.

    :)

    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.

    Black Screen after Log on


    So this is not a BSOD ? Have a Windows 10 disc or USB Flash Drive made ? How are you getting to task manager Ctrl.+Alt+Del ? Any cursor on screen ?
