Hey everyone, I'm facing a frustrating problem with my computer. It boots up, but all I see is a black screen with just the cursor showing. I've tried various key combinations but no luck. Is reinstalling Windows my best option here? Thanks for any help!

Just a quick question—is your PC running Windows 11 by any chance? It could help narrow down the issue!

Nope, I'm on Windows 10. I forgot to mention that, sorry!

Have you tried pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete on the black screen? That should bring up the Task Manager. If it does, go to File > Create New Task and type 'cmd' to open the Command Prompt. Then, type 'powercfg -H off' and hit enter. This can turn off hibernation and might solve the issue—it's worked for me in the past!
