    Windows 7 64 bit black screen with flashing cursor?


    I have an Acer aspire 5733-6607 with Intel Core i3 CPU 2.40GHz.

    My mom was on it playing a game on the internet and stepped away to wash dishes when she came back it was on the black screen with the blinking cursor in the top left corner. I tried system repair disc, the recovery disc that it had me make when I first got the laptop and windows defeender offline nothing worked. I tried F8 and it goes to the black screen with acer and where I can press F2 or F12 and then back to screen with blinking cursor. I tried restoring default settings in the F2 menu also.

    I was wondering if there was something someone knew that maybe I overlooked any help will be really appreciated thanks..

    Unplug all USB devices from your laptop. Restart and see whether the blank screen problem remains.

    It is possible that Windows refuses to boot with a USB device such as an external hard drive or a flash drive connected to your computer.
