Windows 10 build 10041 32bit crashed hp envy x2 tablet/notebook black screen

Hello all,
Upgraded from Win 8 to 8.1 the 10 preview build 10041 (32bit), online upgrade (as machine will not boot from usb), worked well for one day. Then I changed update option from 'only notify me of available updates' to 'automatically install updates for windows' or somesuch.
For two days, can only get black screen using all combinations of shift/ctrl/fn/windows key with f2/f8/f9/f10/f11 keys.
Holding the power button down for brief or long period. With mains power lead inserted or not. With tablet connected to base or not. Ran down the battery, no change.
I suspect the problem is due to the Win 10 O/S is perceived as an alien O/S by the system. Prior to updating to Win 10, I was unable to boot from usb or access legacy boot.
My machine:
HP envy x2 pc
product number c8c42pa#abg
serial number 4cn2480dgk
Bios was updated from f12 to f13.
Thanks in advance, AA

Window 10 build 10041 does not work with Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet on ASUS motherboard

I originally posted this question here:
answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_update/window-10-build-10041-does-not-work-with-intel/6729892f-83aa-4822-b20a-ea84f4fd06c7
and was asked to post it on this forum...
I updated a computer I have which is a quad core i7 that I built and includes an ASUS motherboard with Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet built in. Windows 10 preview 9926 worked fine with this network adapter. Window 10 build 10041 does not, and I have tried
it twice so far. I even went as far as buying a Thunderbolt-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (Broadcom, sold by Apple)... and while it installed the driver automatically, it did not work either. Each time you try to view the properties of either of them, it locks
up or give an error. In fact, doing much of anything with the Intel adapter icon assures you of not being able to do a clean reboot... have to kill power. I have finally gone back the previous version 9926, which has its issues but no where near as bad
as not having any network connectivity! Does anyone have this issue and a workaround?
Note, there are two images on the windows 10 preview forum that I posted this question on. I could not post the full link as I was getting a message here that links and graphics are not allowed.

Thanks Roger, I posted the following yesterday in the other thread (thinking it was this thread - confusing after they moved it here)... It may be that the new driver fixes the issue that 10041 has with it, but I have not tried that yet. If I do I will update
this... Thanks!
I have more information about this, which basically exonerates any issue with the Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet hardware or software. I have 3 computers with Windows 10 preview so I have multiple angles to see issues from. With this I have found a culprit
(but I suspect not just the only culprit) in this above mentioned problem...
10041 build combined with installing (or attempting to install) CISCO VPN Windows 7 64bit 5.0.07.0440-k9 client causes the issue mentioned above. I confirmed this on a completely different machine with a totally different Ethernet adapter. First machine
is an ASUS motherboard in a tower system I built, with the Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet hardware built in. Second machine is a Gateway Laptop from 2008 which has a Marvell Yukon 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit adapter built in. Build 10041 will work fine with my 2008
laptop, including the MS VPN client (which I have tested). However, if you attempt to install or even uninstall the Cisco client you will have to do a recovery to a restore point (as I have done twice) in order to get your network working again. Installing
or attempting to install (because it never even does install properly and times out), CISCO VPN client will render your entire network unusable. Going back to a restore point saved me and I am still running 10041 but I can't use CISCO VPN client any longer.
I could with build 9926, including on all 3 machines. I now have 9926 on two machines and 10041 on only the 2008 laptop.
Hopefully this above information helps someone resolve the issue. I will also mention, even though my network is working on the 2008 laptop, I still can't go into the Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections and right mouse click on the Marvell
Yukon 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit adapter icon. I get an error when clicking on Properties menu popup : "An unexpected error has occurred". So something is still up with my network adapter driver or windows software, but it could be a side effect of all
that has happened with the Cisco software install attempts under 10041.
Another note: CISCO Anyconnect also has the issue.

Windows 10 Build 10041 start menu not working

I have installed the Windows 10 Build 10041 update yesterday. But since then I can’t leave my computer till it sleep automatically. Otherwise my computer will complete died and I need to press the power bottom to restart Windows.
But at that time, the Wndows start menu is still working.
However, this morning I find that my computer start menu is not working, and the search bar, Windows key, notice board icon at right side and internet icon is also not working. I have use the control panel to check the problem but
it could not find any faults.

Hi,
What's the type of your current user account? Built-in Administrator account or others?
Generally speaking, you can try to create a new user account to fix this problem. If no use, please try to use system restore to revert your system to a former normal time point for test.

No Password entry option Windows 10 build 10041 (and 10049) unable to log in

Hello. I upgraded using the automatic process from within Windows 7 home premium. I'm using an All-in-one machine with 4gb RAM and 3.10ghz Core i3.
Initially I had a local account with no password, which automatically logged me in from start up. Everything ran smooth and well. I switched to a microsoft account which requires a password, in order to install apps from the Metro store.
I shutdown overnight, and return the next morning, and I'm faced with the usual screen. A large image, few icons. I swipe upwards on screen or press space to move along and log in. My username is presented to me, but the password input field is missing.
It says "Andrew" and has my email beneath it, but the password box is just not there. I clicked the screen randomly but nothing showed up. I've tried typing anyway but still nothing.
This left me comlpletely unable to sign in and use windows. In dire need of a PC to use, I activated a workaround which allowed me to use cmd without logging in and used the /active command on the hidden administrator. This is the only accessible use of
my PC I've got, and my files are buried deep within C:/users/..... and so on.
As per the title, I also had this issue in build 10049 but I had to revert back since I locked the PC using window+L out of habit, and I couldn't log back in. I reverted back to 10041 since having restarted the PC from being locked out, I encountered
boot loop.

Andrew754,
Are you saying that you are now in build 10041, and that you are unable to login because there is no option to enter the password ?
If yes, have you tried...... press Ctrl + Alt + Delete keys ?
Will that bring you back to normal sign in screen ?

Start Menu in Windows 10 Build 10041 not working

20 minutes after the installation everything was fine and the start menu was working well. It has stopped all of a sudden now. Pressing start button as well now simply highlights the search bar and I have to rely on it to open all my apps. If anyone is facing
any similar problem, please help.
Thanks.

Dv6 Notebook "Black Screen" following "Windows Blue Screen" error message. Caps Lock blinking!

I have a HP DV6 notebook. I left my computer on overnight and the next morning I woke up to find a Windows Blue Screen error message. It said to restart my computer. I was in a rush so I just closed the lid. When I returned I opened the lid and the screen was black. I pressed the power button to restart it and I haven't been able to restart it since. I now have a power light, a black screen and the CAPS LOCK light is blinking twice then a pause! Please help!

Hi btgclark,
I understand that you are having an issue with turning on your notebook and the CAPS LOCK light blinks twice and then pauses. The following document 'Computer Does Not Start and the LEDs Blink or the Computer Beeps' will walk you through the steps that you need to follow. For your error code, it means that the BIOS has a corruption failure. This document will walk you through the necessary steps to get this resolved.
If for some reason this document does not resolve the issue please provide me with the model number to your notebook. I have included a document 'How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?'
Please let me know how this works out for you, thank you.

HP ENVY TS 15 Notebook PC (Screen Cannot Duplicate)

Hello,
I am trying to connect my laptop to my TV by HDMI. When I switch the source on my TV to the proper HDMI input it does not show anything.
When I press the windows key + P it reads. Your PC can't duplicate a screen. Try reinstalling the driver or using a different video card. My product number is E0M24UA#ABA .
Is my computer just not able to duplicate a screen. I just got it back from HP technical Support with a new drive and totally wiped. Runing Windows 8 (64 bit). I have only installed Google Chrome and Silverlight for Netflix. Hope to hear from you guys soon!

Is your notebook configured with switchable graphics?
Take a look in the Device Manager in the display adapter section if you are not sure.
Have you tried reinstalling the appropriate AMD driver softpaq to see if it resolves the issue?

Firefox crashes after Flash videos play with black screen

Whenever I'm playing a video with Flash, the screen is black although the sound is playing. Then Firefox is crashing.
I'm using the newest Firefox Version (28.0) on Mac OS 10.9.2 (newer Macbook Air) and the newest Flash version. I tried Safe mode and deactivated my plug-ins to make sure it's Flash.
I re-installed Flash and installed but it didn't help.
My Firefox crash reports say "hang | libsystem_kernel.dylib@0x15a3a" under signature and "EXC_BREAKPOINT / 0x00000002" under crash reason.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

T440s with Windows 8.1 (and BitLocker) - 1 ot of 3 times gets black screen when booting

We have a case on a machine with original "Lenovo Windows 8" installed. Windows updated to 8.1 and the latest patches. System update is up to date.
Aprox 1 out of 3 times, when booting, after entering the BitLocker PIN, the Windows loading screen is shown in 1-2 seconds, and the the screen goes black. But the machine is moving forward, because the fingerprint lights up and the user is able to log in using that.
(The machine was even able to print a document that was sent to the printer when the machine was offline.)
Have tried to disable fingerprint without any success.

I have the same problem.
After trying and failing many times, I worked out that disabling my nvidia card was the only successful solution.
This will then allow the intel graphics chip to work on its own.
Something is wrong with the communication with the USB Dock and the nvidia card! I am hoping a workaround that allows me to keep the nvidia card switched on will be found by someone...

Windows 8 2000-2d19wm hp notebook black screen on startup

when i start the computer, blue hp logo screen comes up, then turns black.
i cant use the computer, it's only 2 weeks old!
not liking windows 8 at all!

I have the same problem and just bought it today!

I refreshed Windows 7 and now all Firefox will give me is a black screen. I have reinstalled it many times.

Also the letters turn into blocks. The only way to sum up is that it's broken. Period. And nothing is helping.

hello spearcarrier, this might be an issue with hardware acceleration - please try [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL|updating your graphics driver]], or in case this doesn't solve the issue or there is no new version available at the moment, disable hardware acceleration in ''firefox > options > advanced > general''.

Dell Bluetooth 365 not detected in Windows 10 Technical Preview (Builds 10041 and 10049)

When I installed Windows 10 build 10041 on my 2009 Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop my Bluetooth 365 stopped working. On investigation I saw that Bluetooth had disappeared from Device Manager completely, but no yellow '!' was apparent anywhere. When I checked the BIOS the Bluetooth card was present. I researched the issue for a couple of hours and realised that Dell did not have a Bluetooth 365 driver for anything later than Windows 7. (That Windows 7 driver had worked in Win 8/Win 8.1). I discovered that the card is made by Broadcomm and is also used by Lenovo in some of its laptops. I downloaded the following driver from Lenovo's support site and installed it. When prompted, click the 'update software' button, and a further installation will run. If you wish, have Device Manager open and you will see the drivers and devices install.
support.lenovo.com/.../ds031759
It worked perfectly and my Bluetooth card was detected and configured and now all my Bluetooth devices work with Windows 10.
The Dell 1545 with Bluetooth is a great workhorse PC and it would have been a shame if it could not have been used with Windows 10. I hope it is not a sign of forced obsolescence by Dell, and that they will release Win 10 drivers for this venerable old laptop. It is a shame to have to go to a competitor for a driver. Judging by my web research there are many of this model still in everyday use. I trust this will be of use to other users.

There is a universal Broadcom Bluetooth Update which would cover this also:

2012 13 inch MacBook Pro crashes (black screen) on Windows 7

Hi, I am running Windows 7 (bootcamp obviously) and out of the blue my screen went black, my only option was to make a hard reset. I can then run Windows on Safe Mode, and I found out that if I turn off the graphics card (HD 4000) then Windows will run OK in "normal" mode.
That happened a month ago, and the only thing I could think of was re-installing Windows via Bootcamp. Windows ran flawless until a couple of days ago where the black screen appeared again and the only way I managed to get into Windows again was either on Safe Mode or in normal mode (with the graphics drivers unabled).
Please help me, I really need to run Windows for work and this is really bothering me.

"Don't think it's the inverter since that helps turn on the backlight on."
Actually the inverter bumps the 5 V. ? from the logic board and bumps it up to high voltage to drive the back light.
https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/51132/MacBook+inverter+board...how+to+test
Checks you could try would be to check the input voltage to the inverter board. Check the inverter cable for shorts. These are easily seen on close inspection. If there is a short it could have taken out the tiny fuse that's on the logic board. Or the inverter board itself could be bad. Sub board repairs would require known good replacements. I have identified that fuse but on an earlier model and repaired it after replacing the inverter cable but no tech would go that far.

OS 10.4.5 failure to startup-login window/ black screen/ blue screen-frozen

Hi there,
To anybody that can help me, I thank you very much indeed in advance.
G4 Powerbook, 1.5gHz, 2gb Ram (1gb kingston ram added since purchase date), OS 10.4.5, security update 2006-002 (v1.1 (?) recently installed).
My current problem is that i cannot log into OS X. It boots as far as the login window, which is unresponsive, and then it then flicks to a black screen with 2 or 3 lines of white text and then flicks to a totally 'mac-blue' screen with the black arrow pointer still active.
A history of my problem;
1) Yes, unfortunately I tried to get front row to work on my machine (the hack with the front row enabler etc), and subsequently removed all traces of it after it screwed up a few things (menu bar missing, failure to restart). This tidy-up involved doing something with system library, bezel services...etc.
2) I recently installed the first version of security update 2006-002. i am not saying this is the cause, but sometime after I did this, things started going wrong again. another thing i did recently which i hadnt in the past was to have itunes appear at startup and a few days later i emptied my hard drive of all my music and had this linked to a lacie 250gb via firewire 800. The problem at this was that login/startup was incredibly slow and sometimes the finder would keep relaunching itself on its own once the operating system was up and running. Also, when i tried safe boot, the login window would appear and then it would flick to a black screen. it would let me type in a username, but it would not let me input anything for the password.(I did use disk utility to repair permissions when i did manage to logon).
This whole problem seemed to go away for a day or two, but the login was still slower than usual the past few days.
I then turned on my powerbook this morning and login was extremely long and never completed fully- lots of pinwheel spins, menu bar not loading, itunes not appearing.
After a few forced shutdowns I left the computer for maybe 5-10 mins and it seemed to sort itself out after a few finder relaunches etc, and so i tried a few things;
3) I tried installing the newer version of the security update 2006-002 version 1.1 i think? At the same time i took itunes off the startup launches and also switched off auto login for my account (a silly idea it seems).
Since restarting from the security update, the operating system gets to the login window, which is unresponsive, and then it then flicks to a black screen with 2 or 3 lines of white text and then flicks to a totally 'mac-blue' screen with the black arrow pointer still active.(this is with the power adaptor connected only, no other cables etc)
I have tried Resetting PRAM, and using fsck, although I am slightly unsure as to whether or not this is useful to me anyway. I cannot reinstall the operating system until next week as my mum has my copy of tiger at home a few hundred miles away!
Any help at all would be so greatly appreciated, especially on the eve of my two year anniversary with my powerbook!
Kind regards,
Henry Harker

Hi Henry
I've just encountered this problem with one of our computers at work. Hopefully this will help.
It's a Login Window Prefs problem. It's probably corrupted so you need to remove the prefs file.
1. Startup in safe mode (hold down shift). You should get a login window for the master admin account.
2. Delete the file: userName>Library>Preferences>com.apple.loginwindow.plist
3. Restart.
Let me know how you go.
Cheers
