Question Black Screen after computer starts.

[SEstes71]

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I was transferring photos from my phone to my PC when windows explorer stopped responding tried to use task manager to exit program but it wasn't showing up so I did a hard shut down. Now when I restart my computer it goes through the start up process but when it's supposed to go into windows I get nothing but a black screen with an arrow cursor and the hard drive working indicator is lite solid instead the of it Flickering like it does when your hard drive is working. The system ran an automatic repair after a few restarts but came to the same issue I then pulled out my boot thumb drive to se if I could get into windows and maybe do a reset but after start up I'll get a black creen with the windows logo for a few seconds then a black screen so I'm not sure what the issue is or what to do? Is there a way to do a fresh reinstall with out being able to see the screen?
My set up is
GTX 1070
Coffee Lake i5 CPU 9600K
16 gig ram
Samsung 850 EVO 250gb SSD
Corsair 650 Bronze PSU
Correction my PSU is a EVGA 80 gold 650 the Corsair was my old obe

Very unlikely.


What you could do, is to take out your GTX 1070 completely and hook monitor to MoBo. This works only IF you do not have F-suffix CPU;

i5 CPU

Hence the reason why to be specific when writing out your specs. If i'd know what CPU you have, e.g i5-9400F, i wouldn't suggest the above since it won't work.

Same goes to:

Corsair 650 Bronze PSU

It is important to know the model of the PSU. 80+ Bronze from Corsair is usually low or crap quality PSU. Can't say for sure without knowing PSU's model.

I was able to use my boot drive and am doing a fresh install so once that's done hopefully it will bring up to windows without a black screen if I still get the black screen after a fresh install then I will try connecting monitor to MoBo I'm hoping it's just a software snag because it was working fine until Explorer stopped responding and had to do a hard shut down to exit out snd correction my PSU is a EVGA 80 gold 650

My CPUis a i5 9600k

then I will try connecting monitor to MoBo

Before connecting monitor to MoBo, you have to take out your dedicated GPU. It won't work if you keep your GPU seated in the MoBo.

correction my PSU is a EVGA 80 gold 650

Which model?

Supernova can't see much other than that and that it's a 80 Gold plus

Supernova

🤣

There are that many EVGA Supernova 650 80+ Gold models out there,

I counted 12 different models. 🙄

Read the PSU's label? Model name is written on there.

The way my PC is I would have to take it out to see

This would be something you'd need to do, since PSU (if low quality unit), can be underlying problem for your issues. Symptoms wise, there seems to be hardware failure. Either OS drive failure/OS corruption or GPU failure (hence why black screen). <- All this can be caused by poor PSU.
