2 Problems. 1. Black Screen With Only Cursor Showing 2. Explorer.exe blocked.

Hello Guys and Gals,
I am having a problem with my Laptop. First of all, my screen is black with only a cursor showing (that is not blinking) and I can only run programs through Task Manager. Second, I cannot open 'explorer.exe'. When
I try I get this error: "This app can't run on your PC. To find a PC version, check with the software publisher". I really would like help with this as I do not wish to spend another $500 on the same laptop. Also due to the fact that I have
many important files I do not wish to loose.
INFORMATION:
I have an Acer running Windows 8 (It came with it).
6GB DDR3 Memory
Thank you for your time. Cheers!

Sometimes when I open my laptop back from sleep, I get a black screen with the cursor showing.

Recently I've been getting this weird problem where my macbook air will show a black screen with only the cursor visible that I can move around but nothing else can be done to get to the desktop. The only way is to close the lid and wait for around 10 or more seconds and then open the lid again to bring the laptop back from sleep and hope that the laptop goes to the lock screen and then to the desktop. This works often but sometimes the only solution seems to be to restart the laptop. This also happens when I tilt the lid to the point where it is almost closed and when I tilt it back the screen presents the above state. Theis has been happening often now and it is almost impossible for the above not to happen atleast 2 to 3 times a day. iThis is a relatively new problem that has been occuring since the past two weeks or so and never happened to me on my Macbook Pro 15 2011. My current system is a Macbook Air 11" 2013 Haswell 1.3 Ghz 4GB RAM 256 GB SSD. Now I dont want to have to send in my laptop if I dont have to if there is a way I can solve this myself. Anybody else have this problem?

Hello tseten,
I would be concerned too if my MacBook Air was not waking from sleep appropriately. For an issue like this, I recommend resetting your System Management Controller (SMC) and NVRAM.
Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
Note: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Where it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program.
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Hi,
First plaese unplug any external device (except the mouse and keyboard), then hold on the power button, perform a cold reboot, what is the result?
If doesn't work, please press F8 (or other button, depend on your PC model) boot your compute into recovery console.
You can restore your system to a previous point or perform a startup repair, please refer to the following link:

My laptop L2000 lance Armstrong only boots to a black screen with a cursor.

My laptop only boots to a black screen with a cursor. Can this be because the board numbers may be different then whats on the HD? I swaped a HD from a old and ugly L2000 to a new and shiny looking laptop! dbarselow

Boot from the first of the system discs (by holding down the C key until the welcome screen goes away) and, in Disc Utility, repair privileges. Not just permissions, but privileges. Then reboot at normal. That will probably fix it.

Server 2008 crash - black screen with mouse cursor

dell poweredge 2950 with Perc 5/I RAID, ESXi 4.1 host, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 VM
After swapping out a failed raid5 drive this vm began displaying inpage operation error popups while checking folder permissions. event viewer errors:
The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume \Device\HarddiskVolume2.
The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume C:.
chkdsk /r run from the win2k8r2sp1 install dvd command line resulted in more corrections than i was able to screenshot:
After this the server would only boot to black screen with mouse cursor. same black screen result in safe mode or directory services restore mode. sfc /scannow, startrep, and registry repair from the folder contents @ c:\windows\system32\config\regback
have been attempted with no improvement. I am still able to access the filesystem contents using the command line from the win2k8r2sp1 installation DVD - user + registry files copied over to another drive without problem and i was able to load
the registry hive on another system. This server was doing dns, domain controller and certification authority but the only important item is getting the CA back somehow. Any suggestions are welcome.

Hi,
According the information you have provided, the file system is broken.
After the repair, do chkdsk /r and sfc /scannow give any warning or error?
If yes, it means that the file system and system file are not repaired. Please post the error or warning here. It may give some hints.
Best Regards.

Black screen with no cursor after installing Windows 7 through Boot Camp on Retina MBP

Hey all.
So, I have a Retina Macbook Pro (15", late 2013). A couple weeks ago I tried to install Windows 7 on it through Boot Camp.
After some struggles with trying to repair my disk with Disk Utility and having to recover the system etc, I finally managed to actually install Windows 7. However, after the installing was ready, when Windows was supposed to boot, it just gave me a black screen with no cursor. I really had no idea what to do there, I tried to do some research from google but only found answers regarding a black screen with a cursor DURING the installation. However, I managed to launch Windows in safe mode. I deleted graphics drivers that bootcamp assistant had installed, and then it worked and I got to boot Windows succesfully.
However, as probably all of you know, you can't do much without those drivers. Games, videos, overall performance of the system is kinda horrible.
After that, I wiped the whole system, Mac and Windows, and reinstalled Mac. During the Windows installation I was running on Mavericks, now I've got Yosemite. I might try installing Windows again next week, does anyone have any clue why the black screen happened? What could I have done wrong? And the most important question in my mind, in case that happens, is there any way to install the graphics drivers manually from somewhere? After I uninstalled 'em earlier, I tried to find them manually, but couldn't find any.
Thanks!

Yes, that's exactly what was the problem in the first place, I had a USB3 device. Switched to USB2 device and the installation progress started flawlessly.
The later part I didn't quite get. What are those installation methods, how could they cause the problem there? I had no problems during the installation, but after installation when launching Windows I had the black screen, and that I suppose was GPU drivers problem if I'm not totally wrong? I could hear the basic Windows system beeps etc when I tried clicking everywhere (had no cursor either, just clicking randomly), so the system was running there, but just didn't draw the picture at all.

Black screen with blinking cursor when installing win 7/vista x64 osx 10.6

i am using bootcamp 3 to install windows 7/vista x64 on osx 10.6.6.when i select install mac reboots and then all i get is a black screen with white cursor.
i have created a 20gb partition with disk utility in fat32 and i had installed windows successfully when i was on osx 10.5.i tried erasing and creating new partition but same problem.
any help will be appreciated

This solved it for me!
From another forum:
"1. Put the Windows 7 installation disc in the disc drive, and then start your computer.
2. Hold down Option key till all available disks are displayed and select DVD. Press a key when you are prompted.
3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then 4. click Next.
5. Click Repair your computer.
6. Click the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next.
7.In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click Command Prompt.
Type (these commands are safe)
Code: Bootrec.exe /FixMbr
Code: Bootrec.exe /FixBoot
Code: Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd
*Press ENTER after each command.*
*Restart your computer.* "

Gnome Black Screen with Mouse Cursor after Login

I am using Archlinux 64bit with a Gnome Desktop Environment. Everything was running normally uptill today. When i ran "sudo fc-cache", my system froze. I couldnt open any other app but i was able to access terminal. I restarted using "reboot" command. After that I was unable to log in to my desktop.
The Gnome login screen comes and after entering the correct username and password, all I can see is a black screen with mouse cursor. I then started gnome manually with "startx" and it worked. But still I am unable to use normally (that is the graphical login). I reinstalled gdm but it didnt work. Please help me out.

there are a lot of processess running... dunno killing which process will not cause a problem

Windows 8.1 installation: Black screen with blinking cursor

Hi!
Trying to install Windows 8.1 on my MacBook Pro. Worked fine last time I tried. Now, however, using the same DVD, after `Press any key to boot to CD or DVD...`, I'm taken straight to a black screen with a blinking cursor and nothing is happening.
I've seen similar cases, ie. Black screen with only mouse cursor on it - Windows 7 instalation Solved - Windows 7 Help Forums - but they usually occur after the installation welcome screens etc., or after the install itself has succeeded.
I just ran `fsck` and found no errors.
Thanks!

My ipad2 is not responding..I want to restart it but i can get nothing but a black screen with only the apple logo and a small gear icon. It occasionally beeps but no other response. Any ideas as to what may be wrong and what I can do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPad fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Tecra M2 - black screen with the cursor flashing

Hi guys,
Im hoping someone out there may be able to help me fix my laptop.
Ive read a couple of posts but not sure they can help me.
When I swicth on my Tecra M2, I just end up with a black screen with the cursor flashing in the top left or I get a screen filled with alternating 0's and 1's.
Sometimes the TOSHIBA splash screen appears with the boot options, other times it doesnt.
I cannot boot to CD and it wont boot to the HDD. Ive taken the HDD out and the CDROM out but it does the same thing which to me suggests that its not getting through the BIOS even as far as the boot sequence.
Does this sound like BIOS failure to you and do you know of a way to fix it? Ive tried taking the battery out, powering off and starting again but the same thing happens.
Any advice would be be appreicated.
Thanks,
Ross

I have had this twice now and in both cases it was caused by a faulty HDD - to confirm that the motherboard etc is still OK load the recovery CD in the DVD drive (or even better a freestanding XP disc), press F2 on startup and shift the cursor under the DVD drive as the boot drive.
If the motherboard etc is OK you will get the reload instructions (from the recovery disc) or a Windows install screens (from the XP install disc).
Satisfied that the machine at least works - replace the HDD and recover from the recovery disc or try a Windows repair from the recovery console (from the XP install disc with the HDD still in place).
In my cases I was forced to recover to a new HDD and then rebuild the machine from backups - I now clone the HDD when rebuilt.

Boot Camp: Early 2011 MacBook Pro boots to black screen with blinking cursor after windows 7 installation.

I bought and downloaded the windows 7 ultimate edition 64 bit iso, then proceeded to perform a correct burn to a DVD one at the slowest speed and one at the fastest. all went well. so I open Boot Camp assistant and follow the instructions to the letter, downloaded the driver support to the flash drive. partitioned my drive with more than enough room 150 gb. its starts its install. I get through everything seamlessly where I put in my info all with the exception of my activation code. yet it still continues to finalize the install and does another restart. boots back up to either A. black screen saying press any key to boot to my install disk. B. if I take it out just a white curser. also I read it may be because I had the flash drive in while I was trying to boot so I removed it as well, same result. any input would be much appreciated.

Why is an mov file showing up as a black screen with only audio?

I am importing a mov file into elements 11 and it is only showing up as a black screen with audio. The clip will play in other programs on my computer but is not importing into elements 11. The file was created on my panisonic camera. I am pretty new to video editting and am quite frusterated. I'm assuming it is some sort of codec issue but don't know how to proceed. Thanks for any help.
