I got the black screen with no cursor (left the house at 15%, got back to this)
I had been out a couple of hours, no disk activity etc
held power and restarted, it said recovering installation, rebooted itself and within 2 minutes was back at black screen
held power and then turned back on, it restored itself to Windows 8.1
once loaded it downloaded all of Windows 10 again, I then told it to install again, went to work, wife tells me it's on a black screen again, no activity, nothing will wake it up
Dell laptop, 2 years old (new to me) updating from Win 8.1
