Help! My PC Is Stuck on a Black Screen After Installing a Driver

Asked By CuriousCat92 On

I think I made a mistake while trying to install the NVIDIA driver on my dual-boot setup with AnduinOS. I agreed to update the X server config during the installation process, but now when I try to boot my computer, all I get is a black screen. I can't even access the BIOS! My primary OS is Windows, and it boots fine when I don't change anything. However, if I press F12, it takes me to my Linux setup, which now shows a blank screen. I tried holding the power button for 30 seconds, but that didn't help. The side LED indicators are showing one blue light (charging) and one orange light. My device is an ANV15-41 with a Ryzen 7 7735HS and RTX 4050. Can anyone help me fix this?

In some cases like this, it might be quickest to just reinstall the OS due to the driver installation messing things up.

When you held the power button for 30 seconds, did you also disconnect both the battery and power supply? Sometimes that can make a difference when troubleshooting these kinds of issues.

I didn't disconnect the battery, but I did remove the power supply. Right now, I can’t even see the Acer logo when I press the power button, and the keyboard isn’t responding, even though the LED lights up.
