Samster17 Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Hello when turning on my pc it will start up as normal but then the screen goes black with just mouse arrow visible Quote
PseFrank Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 Hi Samster17, welcome to Extreme Tech Support - Free PC Help First of all check that your monitor cables are all plugged in firmly. Do you hear a single or multiple beeps when you boot up? If so which is it? Can you boot into Safe mode? (Tap F8 when booting)...If so, does this make a difference?

Samster17 Posted May 29, 2011 Author Posted May 29, 2011 There are no beeps when coming on and I have check all cables are firmly in place and the same thing happens with safe mode Quote
PseFrank Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 How much ram do you have installed, and how many modules/sticks. Remove all of the ram except one stick, and try and boot. Try this with each stick you have. What is the make and model of your computer? Quote I thought I knew today...I'll try again tomorrow. :) Need help with your computer problems?
