R5450-MD1GD3H/LP: Black Screen, endless reboots & No OS Boot

As written elsewhere (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=159633.0), I have had strange problems about AHCI driver installation ..
..well,
I fix them in safe mode, but , I had a problem installing the catalyst drivers (fail message info by same CCC installer),
and the next reboot .. here is only black screen!
..the fans start spinning, but there is no boot of the OS!
The Mobo is a MSI P45 memory lover (no onboard VGA)
I tried using a MSI hd6450 and the system works ..
I tried the HD5450 on other platforms (775 and 1155), and the system does not work (even the onboard VGA is on at startup, if the 5450 present)
I think with the many reboots, CMOS reset, safe mode, system restore by Windows CD, the video card has a few voltage peak, or the drivers were not installed well have generated the fault.
I know that before it stop work, the video card was very hot on the big passive heatsink, because I feel it whit my finger (which is less than the hd6450 that I put after, because I feel it too)
then I ask you:
Do you think that the card is finally dead?
there is a chance for me to flash the original bios (on itself) with the MSI Radeon in these conditions?
thanks
max

Yesterday I have not had time to do the screen Ati flash, but will do it tomorrow ..
Today however I decided to buy a new fanless R5450 1Gb ddr3 ..
the model is slightly different than the previous, above the sink is no longer as big as that of the previous VGA that has failed ...
now,
I do not remember the average temperature of the working of the old VGA,
with an outside temperature of 37 degrees, the house will be nearly 30 degrees, do you think that is normal to have a temperature of 50 degrees on the new R5450?
Whereas, ..-as seen in images-that the CPU daily, (L3110 from a 45Watt tdp) remains at 31 degrees with a heat sink CM Geminii
I'm also thinking that the MSI P45 memory lover (which I bought on ebay germany USED)
may have some problems with the voltage phases of PCI-ex, and whether it was the cause of the failure of the previous video card..
(P. S. what section of the forum I can present the Worklog of my projects with MSI boards?)

Do you have AppleCare? Even if you don't, take to the Apple store and tell them what happened. They should help even though it's a few months out of warranty. You might have to talk to a manager or different higher up.

Macbook pro continuously black screening and rebooting-any solutions?

Ever since upgrading OS to Mountain Lion there have been numerous times when waking the Macbook, it goes to black screen and reboots. Several times it has rebooted then immediately shut down and rebooted again. I am also running Paralles 9 which I needed to install after upgrading to the OS 6 operating system. Has anyone else had this problem and is there an easy fix?

You might try this:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Computer, black Screen and reboot problem

I have problems with my computer black screening and rebooting randomly recently. Tried a few things like downgrading the nvidia drivers and only using one monitorscreen.
I was using version 347.52 but downgraded to 344.11 but still got the problem
The times this happens can be anytime but happens most often while i'm playing games and at the moment i'm only playing on normal graphics while my graphics card should be well good enough to handle ultra graphics.
I used this program "WhoCrashed" and got this crash report:

Black screen on reboot from windows to mac?

Hello,
A black screen is stalking me... I'd be much obliged if anyone can help.
The problem:
I have Windows 7 installed with Bootcamp. Every time I shut down / restart from Windows to get to the Mac side, the chime rings, but the screen stays black. I can tell the Mac is running though, because of the sound I hear when I press the volume up/down keys on the keyboard. Then, at some point (5 - 30 - 60 mins later) the computer decides out of nowhere it's time to unveil the desktop... This never happens when I reboot from the Mac side (unless I force shutdown while the black screen is still there).
Things I tried that didn't work:
- Command-Option-P-R to reset NVRAM (worked once but didn't fix it, and now when I try the screen stays black)
- Resetting SMC
- Apple Diagnostics came back with no issues found (when I restarted after the diagnostics, I got hit with the black screen again...)
- Erasing the Windows partition and reinstalling it.
Things I should probably mention:
The mac is a late 2013 iMac, Intel Core i5 with NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M, running OSX 10.9.1
I apologize if this has an obvious solution I somehow missed, or if it was answered in another post.
Thanks for your time.

One way is to wipe the iPod clean and use it as a hard drive to carry the files over to the new comptuer. You must format the iPod in what's called Fat32, the older formatting for DOS. If you do this on a Mac, you use the Disk Utility to Erase the disk, and you choose MS-DOS for the format.
Then you plug in the iPod to the Mac, drag the iTunes Music folder to the iPod disk. Then you plug it into the Windows machine and drag the files to your iTunes folder there. See some instructions here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300173
On the other hand, you might try using a 3rd party program that takes songs off the iPod. But Windows doesn't read the Mac files, I bet they won't help you move the music cross-platform.
Hope this helps...

8520 Black Screen then reboot

Ive only recently started to get this problem, basically my blackberry will just reboot it self without no warnings or anything, it will go to a black screen with the LED flashing red twice before resenting itself, ive looked around and found no solution to this problem and i have tried a battery pull and even left it for 5 minutes without the battery but the this problem keeps re-occuring. Also lately i havent been able to recieve calls and call anyone with it sending me straight to answer phone and also with mine i dont know if this is a problem with my supplier (which is t-mobile) But i can still get through after a few attempts. I have had this model since August so its still new.
Any help would be apprciated thanks

Greetings, and welcome to the forums!
Do you have a media card installed? If so, try removing it and rebooting the phone to see if that makes a difference.
You might also try removing the sim card and rebooting to see if your sim card is the problem.

Fglrx install = black screen on reboot, cannot access any gui or cli.

Lenovo T60
ATI X1400
Core2Duo 2.0Ghz
i installed fglrx, and selected it in the xorg.conf, then rebooted, and didnt even get to GDM, all black, so i reboot, go into the failsafe option in grub, and still get a black screen, no text nothing.
What should I do? I really don't want to reinstall i just spent a while doing arch Linux for the first time, and like it so far.

Thanks, but i get a kernel panic

btw, im using Reiserfs
if u got a kernel panic then U need to change the device to the one your arch partition is installed on. change the /dev/sdxx line. kernel panic means that it can't find the root file system to sync too. Or at least that is my understanding. If its not sda1 then what else is it? Its your pc u tell us, where did u install the arch partition to?
I'd say from the sounds of it, whatever is on sda1 partition is a ext2 FS, u need to find the reiserFS, but I may be wrong. Maybe u can't boot like that. Someone with some more experience will need to offer more help. But, if u can't then that's one reason why I don't use resierFS.
I have read before about some reason's why u would wanna keep the /boot partition ext3 for a reason, this was one of them.

Late 2011 17inch MacBook Pro OS X Mavericks Black Screen on reboot

I'm typing this on a Windows XP PC
I upgraded to OSX Mavericks from Mountain Lion a couple of days ago, The upgrade went OK and my MacBook functioned OK.
Today I decide to re-boot it. All I see now is a black screen. The keyboard backlight comes on, but if Itry to type in my password (blind) it just makes the alert sound. I have attempted to use Command R on reboot, but this is not giving me anything - I'm probably not pressing it at the right point in the boot process.
I bought a Mac because it was easier to repair and more reliable than the alternative....
I haven't a clue what to do next - anyone have any ideas? The Mac is vanilla, it has no external devices attached and most of the software on it is Apple.
Tried Safe Boot, no joy,

I have the same problem. I went to the Apple Store and they say that the LCD screen is faulty and needs replacement (500 pounds - 800 USD).
I'm completely devastated by Apple's low quality and terrible customer service.. In my third year the motherboard, the hard drive, the charger and the screen failed. Lesson learnt, I will never buy again Apple junk. The most expensive computer I've ever bought has been the worst.

15"MBP(late 2011): Bootcamp Issue - Black screen on reboot

Hi,
Im running into this issue that I can't fix no matter what I do.
I run bootcamp assistant to attempt to install windows 7 (even though I tried with win xp and another win 7 dvd with the same result) when I click "Start Installation" and my computer reboots it goes straight to a black screen with a blinking cursor at the top left and then nothing. I've left it for hours and nothing happens.
I searched for people who had a similar issue and tried what they've suggested. I've tried fixing the drive in disk utility, removing the windows partiton and creating it again, reseting the smc, reseting the pram and still I get the black screen.
Im am using an external optical drive.
I hope somebody can help me.
Thanks,
Atanas

If Boot Camp Assistant won’t open because you haven’t updated your firmware or system software Boot Camp requires that you have Mac OS X v10.5 or later, and the latest firmware, installed on your computer. Some computers may require more than one firmware update.
To update your computer’s system software:
1 From the Apple menu, choose Software Update. 2 If an update for Mac OS X appears in the list, select it. 3 Click Install.
To update your computer’s firmware:
1 Go to www.apple.com/support/downloads. 2 Search for the firmware updates for your computer.
For example, search for “Mac mini firmware update.”
Important: Some computers may require more than one firmware update. See docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303880 for the current updates available for your computer.
3 Download all applicable firmware update packages. 4 Open each package and follow the onscreen instructions.
Hope this Helps!

Linux-lts leads to black screen on rebooting even for linux (solved)

I'd like to mention a problem I faced when trying linux-lts (kernel 3.14). I had the "linux" kernel installed (4.0). If someone has an idea on what happened, please share.
sudo pacman -S linux-lts
, then
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
, reboot, choose the lts-kernel. I can login to the desktop (lxde, lxqt and i3 are all working). Then reboot, pick any of linux or linux-lts kernels. And here the problem starts: black screen.
I tried to debug the booting process by following https://wiki.freedesktop.org/www/Softwa … Debugging/. I couldn't resolve anything.
By luck I thought "what if it's the login manager (lxdm) that's black?", and so I tried to aim at the middle of the screen with the mouse on the 100% black screen, I entered my password and "boom" I was on the lxqt desktop!
I rebooted, same problem. But by trying to guess where the password box was, I could login to my desktop. To fix the problem at first, I did remove linux-lts, reinstalled linux with pacman, removed lxdm and its systemd service, installed sddm and enabled its service, regenerated the grub.cfg file. Rebooting worked, no black screen.
At that point I thought "well it might just have been lxdm not working well with linux-lts so let's try to install it again, since now I have sddm". Huge mistake... After reinstalling linux-lts, booting in it, rebooting lead again to a black screen on boot up. This time however trying to aim at the box to enter my password was impossible: I was not used to sddm so I didn't know where to click. I tried the "tab" key around 20 times, entering my password each time, without success. So I ended up using the live Arch.iso version on a usb flash drive to remove the linux-lts, sddm (yeah I went for lxdm again), etc. by chrooting. This worked again: no more black screen.
The irony is that I installed that kernel thinking of increasing the stability of Arch on my laptop. It ended up breaking the booting process of both kernels!
And since I want to understand Linux in general, I am posting this in hopes that it could help someone else facing this problem and also in hopes that someone can explain me what could have happened. Because as of now I don't understand how lxdm and sddm could appear black in both kernels when rebooting from the linux-lts kernel.
Thanks for any pointer.

OK just to confirm that enabling the testing repository solved the problem for me as well.
These were the updated packages (excluding dbus which I manually upgraded before enabling the repo):
Targets (18): device-mapper-2.02.98-3 filesystem-2012.12-1 isl-0.11-1 libpulse-2.99.2-1 libquvi-0.4.1-2 libssh2-1.4.3-1 linux-3.6.9-1
linux-headers-3.6.9-1 lua-5.2.1-2 lua51-5.1.5-3 lvm2-2.02.98-3 mkinitcpio-0.12.0-1 nmap-6.25-2 pulseaudio-2.99.2-1 talloc-2.0.8-1
vlc-2.0.4-5 xorg-server-1.13.0.901-1 xorg-server-common-1.13.0.901-1
It might be any of those but most likely could be either the kernel or xorg-server* (just for future reference).

Black screen on reboot - can only see mouse pointer

Installed a couple new apps yesterday and on reboot, I can no longer get my login screen. The workstation boots and I hear the windows login screen sound, but all I get is a black screen which I can see my mouse cursor on when I move it. I've tried powering
off and on a few times and still the same result. I'm unable to figure out how to get to Safe Mode in Windows 10. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Satellite A200 - black screen when reboot

I have Satelitte A 200 and I have the problem that when you reboot I should have only a black screen and goes no further. But I do not beep. Only available in one place. I have tried everything but nothing brings order. I wanted to install Xp but it does not work. Help.

Hi
You mean you dont see anything on the screen while booting? Not even the Toshiba splash screen?
Are you able access the BIOS?
Please check this.
You could also check this; remove battery and disconnect the AC adaptor. Then wait a little bit (1 hour) and after this short period of time connect both parts again.
Then try to boot up.

HT1199 After trying to install window 7 my new iMac will not reboot back to apple. Black screen "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key". How do I get out of this?

After trying to install Windows 7 in my new iMac It will not boot up back to Apple. I have a black screen with the following "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key". My iMac did not come with a boot disk. What can I do?

Try holding down the option/alt key during a restart and see if you can see/select your boot drive there.

WORK AROUND: Black screen/flashing cursor trying to boot windows cd

This refers to the black screen with flashing underline cursor in the top left corner problem that happens after using bootcamp to setup your partition & then rebooting with the windows install CD in the driver. Install never starts, you just get this black screen with flashing cursor. seems to affect many different types of macs attempting to boot both XP & Vista.
I tried rebooting about 10 times. No luck. Same problem. Tried running disk verify/repair after removing partition, no luck. Remade boot camp partition, no luck.
Finally I pointed Parallels (free trial available) to my blank bootcamp partition and set parallels to boot from CD before HD. Parallels booted the Vista install CD just fine, and put Vista on my HD. Crashed at the end though and said it couldn't make the boot camp partition bootable so all changes were removed. Rebooted under boot camp and the installer came up fine off the CD. I'm now running vista (SP1 even) under bootcamp just fine. Parallels just lets you get past that boot-up bug.
So if you have this problem, and nobody else can help, and if you can find it, maybe you can download..... Parallels.
Feel free to post this on the other threads. Unlike other workarounds I'm guessing this will work for everyone and it only takes a free trial download of parallels to give it a try. Just remember to setup the virtual machine to use the bootcamp partition as the target drive, and then go under the edit virtual machine, then OPTIONS, then BOOT tab and set it to boot from cd before HD. Switch it back when you are done.
Then run boot camp assistant again and select the install OS option. Should run the installer correctly (thus overwriting anything parallels put on the partition).
I think VMWare Fusion also supports vitualization with the bootcamp partition as the target so that may help you get around this problem.

I have resolved this issue for four of our iMac computers with either of the following solutions. I realize that these solutions might seem awkward, but these solutions have been the only solutions that have successfully resolved this same issue for four different machines.
Solution 1
On the Mac OS partition, leave the Boot Camp partition that has yet to be configured.
Leave the Windows install disk in the optical drive.
Shut down the computer.
Unplug all cables.
Hold the power button for a minimum of 5 seconds.
Plug in all cables.
Turn the power on.
The computer will proceed to install Windows.
Solution 2 (If Solution 1 fails)
On the Mac OS partition, leave the Boot Camp partition that has yet to be configured.
Remove the Windows install disk from the optical drive.
Shut down the computer.
Unplug all cables.
Hold the power button for a minimum of 5 seconds.
Plug in all cables.
Turn the power on.
A black screen will appear prompting for a bootable disk.
Load the Windows install disk.
Shut down the computer by holding the power button.
Turn on the computer.
The computer will proceed to install Windows.
