BleepingComputer.com: Windows loading problem

hi

windows xp isnt loading well from the last 3 days

i dont know if its hardware fail like RAM , HD, CHIPSET ETC...

anyway it all started when i turned on the system after i turn the the screen on (i thought it reached the desktop) i saw only black screen

i thought it maybe screensaver but i as i made system restart i faced the problem...

after the windows bootscreen it tries to load the windows but the only seen is "black lighten" screen , after few secondes it blinks(for half a second the welcomescreen + the mouse pointer in the midlle and goes black again ......


i disassembled the coputer took out all the parts and cleaned the parts & the case assmbled again but the same problem

do you got any idea?

Reason for edit: Moved from XP to Internal Hardware.

System manufacturer and model?

You tried a different monitor?

Are the fans working properly...are their apparent signs that the system is working, even if not reflected on the screen?

its not OEM

IT MOCO: GIGABYTE GA-MA 785GT-UD3H

CPU: AMD PHENOM X4 II 955 BE

RAM kingston onestick 2GB 1333mhz


the fans and everything works properly , i suspected about the monitor too ( i will connect it to the laptop later)

also the wierd thing that lead my to belive that myabe hardware fail is that

when the screen goes black and i do restart sometimes the system do all the regular precdore and sound when restart but

the screen stays blacks that wierd

Might be a failing hard drive too.
Make sure to test it with the manufacturers diagnostics and do a full scan.
It could take HOURS so be patient

What brand and specs are the hard drive?

connected it to the laptop

and it does the similar problem

it works few seconds and goes black again, like the monitor became unable to sync with the video adapters (both laptops & desktops)

or the monitor inside components damged???

have any idea with this?

Hi TechPc1,

Check the source set-up on the monitor..Not knowing which monitor you have but will guess there is 'menu' buttons somewhere on monitor...I recently had a problem similar to this..someone had accidentally changed my source to auto-switch and all I saw was a black screen but knew Windows was loaded..I set it back to DVI and my screen appeared..

Did you check the source signal on your monitor...? If it is set to HDMI change it to DVI and see if that works...

VGA, DVI, HDMI. What they are and how they differ.
