Windows 10

[ManOfGold93]

Welp,

Another entry about the problems of windows 10.

So I start my computer and the OS looks like it is loading but then the screen goes black and all I can do is move the cursor.

Ive tried doing a blind login many times yet the password does not seem to work.

Build is brand new- was running Win 8.1 for a about 2 months and Win 10 for a week. 

Build is in description.

Any Ideas?

have you tried waiting it out? even my 8.1 does that from time to time. But it does work after a while.

Have the same thing happening to me - just wait (took my computer 3 min)

[ManOfGold93]

I did wait- up to 5 minutes

do you have any single drive that's larger than or equal to 2TB?

 

There is a known issue for 8.1 that boot times slow down if a drive that's larger than 2TB is installed. But there was an official patch released to fix it.(not required)

 

So maybe windows 10 has the same issue and has yet to resolve this stupid thing.

By any chance have you reset your installation after upgrading or have you been running it upgraded as is?

I upgraded to 10 from 8.1 and havent messsed with the instillation at all, the only change was that I watercooled the graphics card and change from triple to single monitor- when I get back im going to hook it back up the to triple and see if it works

From personal experiences, not too fond of upgrades since there tends to be nasty things left behind or broken. Whenever possible, I prefer going clean install. You could try resetting your system to get a clean Win10 installation -- choose the options to remove all files and remember to backup everything vital on the boot drive. Warning, if you do decide to do a reset, you lose the ability to revert back to your previous version of Windows.

I had this happen to me a couple of times, turns out it was USB related in my case. So it might pay you to unplug everything but your keyboard and mouse before you try anything else. For me it was a western digital hard drive, which I have since taken out of the enclosure and installed internally. Was the interface card attached to the hard drive in the external enclosure that was the issue. It was getting on a bit though.
