Stuart Posted June 3, 2009 Posted June 3, 2009 Hi, as the title suggests sometimes my pc boots up quick and other times it seems to be very slow. As in sometimes after the vista welcome screen i see a black screen with nothing but my mouse that i can move. However i dont even see this black screen. How does that work? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marine Posted June 3, 2009 Posted June 3, 2009 How can you see a black screen but not see it? I'm confused..anyways, try running chkdsk, defraging etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Posted June 3, 2009 Posted June 3, 2009 (edited) How can you see a black screen but not see it? I'm confused..anyways, try running chkdsk, defraging etc. Well thats all i see, no desktop just a black screen and my mouse EDIT Sorry see what you mean, i ment sometimes i get the black screen problem and sometimes it misses that bit out and i go straight to the desktop, like you would expect to happen Edited June 3, 2009 by Stuart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maj0rgamer Posted June 3, 2009 Posted June 3, 2009 (edited) might be a video card problem. are you using a video card? if so, is the latest driver installed for it? if you have an extra video card or onboard video, maybe try one and see if things are different. may be something to do with the operating system, but would try this first. are you using an anti-virus program? what about anti-spyware? a full system scan with malwarebytes may not be a bad idea either.

9KRacing Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 LOL, for some reason I read the title of this thread and just could not stop thinking about this song... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myqQGg_s-Pw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReaper Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 Hi Stuart, I had the same thing when I used Pista. It turned out to be a combo of 2 things... 1st are you using a dl'd version of Pista or a store bought original?... (Don't answer that just think) 2nd it was a HDD problem so do as Marine said and try chkdsk for hard drive probs. I know how you feel as I had that problem too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
