Answer +20 Report MenthiX Jul 17, 2008 06:01PM I just had a very similar problem on my new system, and GOT IT FIXED after trying several things! :). My problem was the same you describe: Everything was fine, until i installed the video driver. On the first reboot after installing the driver Windows loads normally until right before the welcome screen. The display goes black and display LED blinks. I can tell Windows still continues to load because i can hear the startup sound from my speakers and the harddisk activity looks normal too. The system will even shutdown properly with a single push on the power switch. So no crashes or anything, just no display output. Booting to safe mode is fine. In safe mode you can remove the Nvidia driver in Device Manager so you can boot back to normal mode again. After googling i tried various things: - First went on installing all the other drivers and updated the BIOS, since it was a brand new system on a fresh install. This may be a useful tip for people with the same kind of problem: Always check your motherboard's site for the latest BIOS version. - Tried the latest driver from Nvidia's site (the first time was the driver offered trough Microsoft Update). Nvidia's own driver got me past the welcome screen, but a few seconds after the welcome screen the display went black again. I guess Nvidia's own driver applies the new settings a little later than the one offered by Microsoft's Update. A slight improvement, but no fix. - Switching off Write Combining is suggested in farious forum topics, but i couldn't find this option. And i'm afraid i i change this option it will just be reset once i install the driver. No fix there. - Tried another cable. Both cables were DVI, but i read somewhere a guy fixed this by buying a new DVI cable and i had a second one laying around. Would have tried a analogue VGA cable too, but couldn't find one. Cable doesn't seem the problem either(for me). At this point i was about to try the videocard from my old system to see if it had the same problem, but went to my BIOS settings first. After looking around in the BIOS settings i changed two settings: - Plug And Play O/S (Advanced > PCI/PnP Settings): Changed from Yes to No. - Initiate Graphic Adapter (Advanced > Chipset Settings > North Bridge Chipset Configuration): Changed from PEG/PCI to PCI/PEG. Saved changes, reboot, installed drivers again, reboot, and... IT WORKED! So changing one (or both) of those settings above did the job. I don't feel like figuring out which of the those two settings was really responsible for

the trouble right now (already spent way to much time on this), but i post this for people with the same problem googling for an answer. Relevant system specs: Asus P5Q Deluxe motherboard NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT GPU Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 64-bit Hope this will be helful to someone... Report spectre - Aug 21, 2008 09:25PM Thanks for the solution. Only difference is that the line Plug And Play O/S (Advanced > PCI/PnP Settings): Changed from Yes to No was already set to no, but changing the initial graphics adapter to PCI/PEG from PEG/PCI solved the problem. Motherboard is Asus P5K SE - wonder if this is a problem with Asus boards System Specs Intel Quad Core 8GB RAM NVidia 8800GTS 512 Windows Vista Ultimate 64 SP1 Report pixil8 - Sep 16, 2008 08:13AM Removing the graphics driver in safe mode worked for me. As mentioned just remove it via Device manager. I think mine got corrupted through a defrag I did earlier. Report bryon - Oct 5, 2008 01:10AM Hi, This fixed it for me also. For those of you still having trouble, I found this little piece of info that may be useful. I have a TV connected to my video card via a HDMI dongle. I discovered that I only had the trouble if the television was completely turned off. This indicated that the card could not detect that something was plugged into either output of the card and therefore got confused. So if the BIOS tweak does not work for you, *maybe* a workaround is to ensure the display device is on first. Regards, Bryon Report resistor - May 17, 2011 09:44AM Before you go banging around in the BIOS try replacing the driver. Start windows in safe mode, press F8 usually during startup - I had to turn my monitor off and on again to see the screen a second at a time, and use arrow keys to move down to "safe mode". Let windows load, If the monitor works in safe mode you're ok. Go to control panel, system, device manager, monitors, where you see your monitor right click and uninstall device. Restart and windows should re-detect your monitor, worked for me. Report cvl - Jan 30, 2013 06:36PM I think resistor had the better option. Reboot in safe mode F8 and then uninstall video driver and then reboot. Report Blackscreen - Mar 3, 2013 09:49AM "Reboot in safe mode F8 and then uninstall video driver and then reboot." I did this, but now the screen is black in safe mode as well. The only thing I see the white cursor along with the normal safe mode text on teh screen. How can I reload the driver when I can't see anything. I'm not computer savvy ... so detail step-by-step instructions would be great!!

Chrystal Report dusty - Aug 13, 2008 09:28PM before you try to replace a graphics card or do a reinstall of an Operating System- Check to see if the jumpers on the hard drive are set to master. This is a small clip that sits in pins on the back of the hard drive. Cable select could be going out and cause the same symptoms. If you are not sure how to set a jumper just google it for directions and it should help, but hard drive a labeled. CS-for cable select, SL- for slave, and MA- for master. If you have a SATA hard drive you don't need to set jumpers. Report keefygeorge caplaw - Sep 18, 2008 11:44AM hey i had the same problem. If youve recently upgraded from windows 32bit to a 64bit version then chances are your is data is being sent to your PCIE expansion slot in 32bit mode. Go to your advanced bios settings and locate the options for your pcie slots if your video card supports pcie and see what settings can be changed but note that different bios versions have different options. I changed my pcie settings from 32bit to 64bit and now it works fine.

Answer +2 Report Tiredofmicrosoft Sep 7, 2008 09:47PM None of these solutions worked for me, my computer was working fine, then one day this problem started. Windows would act like it was starting up, then go to a black screen, thinking I might have some bad ram or other hardware issue, I took the drive out, I had a clone on my old drive for this same system, I popped it in all was fine, it was a small 40 gig drive tho. So I tried everything I could to not have to reformat and redo the entire drive. I put my copy of windows xp, tried the whole restore thing, that did not work, I took the drive back out and made a back up of all content, ran an antivirus check on it no virus's were found. I tried flashing my cmos, then tried to restore again and it did not work. I tried to start in in safe mode and that only made it freeze up really good. I think it is a microsoft udate that screwed me up, that is what it did just before it started this updated restarted went retarded, thanks microsoft, now I get to spend the nex few days reloading, updating and up grading about 30gigs of software and files. The only thing I got to work was reformatting the drive and reloading crappersoft. I just read on microsoft.com many people are having similiar problems to mine, it appears to be an AMD chip related deal. I wonder if microsoft planned that to help get rid of AMD, I guess I will try that next time, but from now on auto update will be forever turned off. Report capt. smackdown - Oct 10, 2008 09:37PM Thats exactly what happened to me after I installed service pack 3; my compuer started off just like you noted.I have to wait about three to four hours with my computer turned on aith the black screen after window start up, then when my screen goes blank and the led light is blinking on the moniter, then I know it is o.k. to click my mouse and then the welcome screen opens up. It is a pain because I thoght I was the only one who thought that the service pack 3 screwed up my computer,but my problem happened immediately after loading the update on my automatic update setting.I think this service pack is the problem. I ran systeme mechanic pro 7 and it found 57 problems in my registry.I fixed them amd my computer is working o.k for now... Answer +2

Report Weapon X Dec 12, 2008 10:26PM I was having this issue this morning, screen goes blank shortly after loading windows desktop. Originally I thought it was some driver conflict as it only happened halfway through loading my startup programs. After having tried just about everything, i went back to basics. First was removing my latest hardware {24" wide lcd} and using my old 19". Worked no issues. I was stumped. Eventually I remembered a setting I had changed on my nvidia control panel. Multi-display/mixed-GPU acceleration was set to Multi Display performance mode {by default}. I had originally changed this to single display mode due to an identified performance issue in Age of Conan. I think originally what happened, was I deleted some temp files yesterday. Had this issue this morning, and reinstalled drivers as a first solution. Then I realised that this default setting may have issue with the dvi-hdmi cable that my 24" LCD uses. In any case after doing a clean re-install of the latest nvidia drivers, plugging in my 19" and changing this setting, I was then able to plug back in my 24". Restarted twice {to be sure} and it was fixed. As for the other issue raised here about your screen going black during gameplay, this is normally due to the nvidia display stops responding and has recovered {not a hardware issue, but a commonly known nvidia driver issue}. This is caused by a conflict with vista desktop theme. Try switching your colour theme to windows classic {ie disabling Aero, vista basic appears to use this too}.

Everything was still smooth, POST ran through without a hitch, windows splash screen came up then it went blank, but I could hear through the speaker that normal processes were running but no video. The solutions: I booted in VGA mode, downloaded and installed the factory drivers from Dell for EVERYTHING, not just video. I rebooted on a normal startup...same issue. So, ok, obviously this isn't a hardware issue as I can can see everything (even adjust the resolution to the highest settings) in VGA mode. The drivers were updated, so that leaves the BIOS and the OS. I flashed the BIOS and rebooted...same. I made the recommended changes to the BIOS as suggested on this forum...same. That leaves the operating system. I dug in deep in the devices (showed hidden hardware) and found that there were two monitors listed in addition to an AIM 4 video adapter to run a flat panel monitor. I have no idea where this came from, but I began the task of trial and error disabling and rebooting. I disabled the AIM 4, and the flat panel monitor, leaving only the "default monitor" enabled. I rebooted and it worked....however....the resolution wouldn't go any higher than 640x480 in 16-bit...nasty. So, now we know the problem. WINDOWS THINKS THERE IS AN EXTERNAL DISPLAY PLUGGED IN. When there is one present, all operations continue, but the video feed goes to the external display while the primary display is in sleep. The final fix: Before I dug into changing and hacking up drivers and customizing windows to do the right thing, I decided to let it do ALL of it's updates just in case it reverted any of my changes back to default and I would have to do them again. I booted up in VGA mode...adjusted the video to hi-res (mostly so I could see everything), and let it go crazy for the next four (4) hours downloading, installing and rebooting. The problem was still there all the way up to the last update...Service Pack 3. Get this...SP3 fixed the problem. I know, I was like "no way", but seriously after the reboot following the SP3 upgrade my video popped right up at the last-saved hi res setting, go figure. Report Dave - Jan 20, 2009 05:16PM I am having this problem also.. this is the most informative post i could find on this topic.. Would this also include the W7 beta 7000 install.. just really frustrating.. it seems like my monitor looses communication to the computer and goes to sleep.. so not necessarily black screen.. i do have it Duel Booting into XP also and that works fine. I will check all the solutions tonight when i get home to see if any work.. But from what i can recall from memory it all should be correct.. I will double check just in case. ~Dave Specs: ---------------------------------------------------------64bit AMD 3200+ AM2 socket
