  1. Windows crashes with a black screen and fan rev up when using Win+tab highly repeatable


    Hello,I'm having an issue with Windows 10 that started up yesterday. Every time I use the windows key and tab to switch apps, all of my monitors will cut to black and the fans on my machine rev up. The system is unresponsive and requires a hard shutdown. This has happened every single time without fail since yesterday. When I boot back into windows, my GPU software announces that it has detected a crash or hardware changes. Windows will often disable my GPU, reducing me to a single monitor. When in this state, the win+tab combo does NOT crash my machine. So naturally, I suspected a GPU drive

    :)

    Black Screen, GPU Fan 100% When Playing Games

    I would suggest going back to at least the October version:

  3. Fan speed too high and receives black screen

    Hi,

    I appreciate if you could answer to a few questions to narrow down to the issue.

    • What is the make and model of the computer?
    • What was the reason for you to perform a reset?
    • Does that mean you receive black screen on the desktop?
    First let us troubleshoot for the black screen issue and as an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to refer to the article provided below and check if that helps.

    Troubleshooting black or blank screens in Windows - Microsoft Support

    Once done with that, let’s check the cause for the fan speed.

    a. While on the desktop, right-click on the taskbar, click on
    Task Manager.

    b. Click on the Processes tab and check if any processes that is running high.

    If none of the process is running high then I suggest you to update the graphics card driver and check if it resolves the issue.

    1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device
    Manager”.

    2. In the list of devices, you should see the Display Drivers.

    3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".

    4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.

    5. In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes” option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.

    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.
