install from W7, runs for seconds then black screen with cursor
I lose explorer.exe shortly after logon. If I click on Firefox or other app, it comes up and stays up, but rest
of the screen goes black. No issues at all with previous W7 install. HP Pavilion, not sure of all hardware particulars. Took HD to another computer, does the exact same thing. Also, I downloaded the latest ISO image the night
before, because I had an older ISO image installed on a different computer that also failed to a black screen. It has
completely different hardware, but same results!
ctrl-alt-del brings up task manager, and I tried running explorer.exe from there, it only lasted a few seconds before it reverts to black screen again. Now two completely different computers with different video, cpus, etc do exactly the same thing. Power settings are now set to never sleep, and never power down, no help there either.
???
TIA for any suggestions....
