Black screen after login AND does not show up on network; Can still re
I've been having problems where when I boot my desktop PC I have the following happening:
- The PC was up, I was logged in, and all seemed fine.
- It would not show up on the network to other computers
- I could still get to the internet
- I shut down
- Boot up OK
- Picture fine, and can bring up login screen
- Login
- Goes to black screen with cursor
- I can Ctrl-alt-del and get the list of options
- I can select task manger
- It returns to black screen
- Still cannot be seen on network
- I CAN remote to it from another PC< but it presents a black screen also
I have fixed this by performing a restore point, but after a few days I 'm back to the same problem. I'm thinking it has to do with a recent patch being applied.
I've done a search on black screen, but there are so many...I haven't run across one that is similar. Most I'm finding are old...and it seems to me this is a recent update problem.
Any ideas?
[Update]
The Task Manager does come up if wait long enough. Shows no apps running. Long list of processes running. I tried this:
- Press Windows CMD key
- Typed in Device Manager (Hoping to go in and see if anything has !, or check video drivers
Nothing happens
