#Installing windows black screen how to#
I have tried hooking the laptop up to my TV, but I don't know how to get it to transfer without being able to login. I have tried booting tk safe mode, but it turns out Windows 10 doesn't have a way of doing that if you can't get to the login screen. I still see occasional activity in the lights, but nothing big. I have since tried forcing it off and starting it again several times, but I still get nothing but a black screen after the Acer screen. The Acer boot screen appeared, but instead of going to the login screen, it went go a black screen (no mouse). I eventually decided to force shut down and power the computer back up. Occasionally I would see the blue light indicating activity flicker, but that was it. I left it alone for 10 minutes, in the event that it would turn back on. The computer was still on and otherwise functioning, but I couldn't see anything. I downloaded the driver and it started installing.Īt about 90% through the install, my screen went black, and the computer made the little "dingaling" noise it makes when removing and adding a new device. One of the solutions suggested was to uninstall the driver, then reinstall it fresh. I made sure the driver was updated, then looked online for work arounds. When I looked into this issue, I found out that Windows 10 isn't completely compatible with this form of Intel graphics. When playing a game (such as WoW, GW2, or any Steam game), every now and then, the game will freeze and crash, then I will receive a message saying that my graphic processor failed but has restarted. Since the update, my Intel(R) HD Graphics Family driver has been giving me issues. I have an Acer Aspire E1-572P, with an Intel(R) Core i5 4200 processor.
