    Question Black screen on startup, safe-mode works

    Sheesh I really made this overly difficult on myself. After trying a different port on the GPU and monitor it worked out okay. Lesson learned, do the simple stuff first. Thanks for your help alexoiu.

    Question Black screen on startup, safe-mode works

    Ah ha, so after removing the video card and using the integrated graphics, it works just fine! Does this mean it's a driver issue for the NVIDIA card? Come to think of it I just realized that I didn't try rolling back to the previous drivers for it.

    Question Black screen on startup, safe-mode works

    That's a really good idea, I totally forgot to try that even though it should be fairly obvious. I'll report back in a lil bit

    Question Black screen on startup, safe-mode works

    Hiya! I'm having an issue I haven't been able to solve independently. My computer was booting onto a black screen, where it just stuck there. It seems like it was a video issue since it started up okay and didn't have any other issues. So I went through the process of repairing from Windows 10...

    Question Malware preventing itself from being removed, in addition to: ACPI.sys/apphelp.dll errors, SFC unable to fix, no networking.

    I did try to use safe-mode and installing malwarebytes, as well as running Chameleon. When I ran Chameleon on a USB where I had Malwarebytes installed, it came up with an error saying the process couldn't be started, which it seems the malware is doing for everything. I don't have a clean USB...

    No luck. Pretty sure I'm going to have to just format the hard drive since this seems like it's way too deeply embedded for me.

    I tried both of those first two* things to no avail. Also tried windows defender offline and it's preventing me from resetting my PC to default too, ughhhh. * EDIT: Trying those other two things, gimme a bit. Thank you for patiently helping me.

    Question Malware preventing itself from being removed, in addition to: ACPI.sys/apphelp.dll errors, SFC unable to fix, no networking.

    Unfortunately the virus is preventing me from accessing Avast, or installing Malwarebytes. I'm also not sure what else is being affected by the virus other than it preventing me from opening programs. Should I just do a system restore? Or would that not resolve the issue?

    Hi there everyone! I'm having some errors with a domino effect and it's stumping me. Help please! I was just browsing YouTube when suddenly I got a BSoD which said: "Stop code: PAGE FAULT IN NONPAGED AREA What failed: ACPI.sys" (Unfortunately I couldn't find a dump file even though I have it...
