Does it happen in safemode (F8)?
Why did you need to do a restore?
Is this a clean install or upgrade? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP Pavillion dv-7 1005 Tx OS WCP ONLY CPU 2@2.4 Memory 4 gigs Graphics Card Nvidia 9600M Sound Card HD built-in Monitor(s) Displays 17" Wxga Screen Resolution 1440x900 Cooling none Internet Speed 45Mb down 5Mb up |

Hi imeem,
It looks like there's a solution here: Black screen with cursor [Solved]
Let me know if that helps.

Is this a clean install or upgrade? I didn't try safe mode yet but I will. and I did a system restore because I suspect that my computer has sum virus or something related to that because all my contacts are spamming me with the same message, I tried msn on another computer and they didn't spam me.
and my computer is already windows 7 when I bought it. Also after the restore, my antivirus stopped working.
I am going to try undoing the restore to see if it will solve it. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Acer M802 OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit CPU Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q8400 @ 2.66GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.7GH Motherboard MB.SCQ07.002 MB KIT G43 ICH10R HMII EUPLOT6 ECS R Memory 8GB DDR2 Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 5770 1 GB GDDR5 Sound Card Realtek ALC 888s Monitor(s) Displays LG FLATRON 23" W2361V Screen Resolution 1920x1080 60hz PSU FSP Group 80 plus bronze 450-500 watts Case Midtower ATX Cooling fan Hard Drives Seagate Barracuda ST3750528AS 750 GB 7200 RPM

Well either the undoing the restore fixed it or that it just magically stopped | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Acer M802 OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit CPU Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q8400 @ 2.66GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.7GH Motherboard MB.SCQ07.002 MB KIT G43 ICH10R HMII EUPLOT6 ECS R Memory 8GB DDR2 Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 5770 1 GB GDDR5 Sound Card Realtek ALC 888s Monitor(s) Displays LG FLATRON 23" W2361V Screen Resolution 1920x1080 60hz PSU FSP Group 80 plus bronze 450-500 watts Case Midtower ATX Cooling fan Hard Drives Seagate Barracuda ST3750528AS 750 GB 7200 RPM

Windows Outreach Team I think I found something new on my computer. Either after this incident or I don't know, I notice that my computer says I have 2 local disk; C drive and Q drive. C drive is my primary and only hard drive and Q drive came out of no where. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Acer M802 OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit CPU Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q8400 @ 2.66GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.7GH Motherboard MB.SCQ07.002 MB KIT G43 ICH10R HMII EUPLOT6 ECS R Memory 8GB DDR2 Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 5770 1 GB GDDR5 Sound Card Realtek ALC 888s Monitor(s) Displays LG FLATRON 23" W2361V Screen Resolution 1920x1080 60hz PSU FSP Group 80 plus bronze 450-500 watts Case Midtower ATX Cooling fan Hard Drives Seagate Barracuda ST3750528AS 750 GB 7200 RPM
