Answer 1

Get a pc i card from pc world  

Answer 2

your display setting  might be out of range of your monitor. Try booting in safe mode and chane the display setting. If you don't know how to do that try using a different monitor , and then change the settings

Answer 3

look in ur phone book 4 experts dat fix da pc. it happend 2 mine or my dads. i 4got. so experts fixed it theyre really great

Answer 4

the last person was most likely right try hitting F8 as soon as it turns on to boot up into safe mode so you can change screen resolution. If there was something wrong it either wouldn't boot, you would get an error message, or a beep code.

Answer 5

Try switching off your SMPS switch at the backside and switch it on. You may need to do it for some 5-6 times.

List of possible Problems/Fixes

1. Video Card- Without knowing why kind of PC your running desktop/laptop its really hard to answer if its a video card problem.

2. Damaged Operating System - Missing boot files can be fixed on XP as long as u have a XP installation disk. This problem Could be caused by, virus or by no shutting the PC down correctly each time.

3. Power supply - Power supplies are like alternators on a car. If they don't put out enuff watts to the motherboard and other components the PC will not work correctly leading to a big black screen.

4. Monitor - Of course we know from what u stated its not the monitor unless its not supporting your graphics setting. As the other 2 ahead of me said. Press F8 soon as u start up pc. Might i suggest u hit it a couple of times. Its kinda of a timed thing. If you dont hit it at the right time you will have to reboot the PC and try again. Once u see the screen asking how you would like to boot the PC, use your arrow keys and move up to "safe mode" and wait and see if that will give you windows.    

Answer 7

Make sure that all pc cards are well connected or clean its terminal connectors  

Answer 8

Could be the video resol;ution is to high for the monitor.

Boot to safemode and set them back

Or the video drivers are corupted..

boot to safe mode and yninstall them.

Answer 9

sounds like mayb a windows error had that a few times,, just re-install windows.. or mayb its the video card or the ram but yer just try re-installing windows if that dnt work.. take a stick of ram out at a time see if that works... nd if u got a video card try taking that out Gl
