    Black screen w/cursor after Windows load screen - Nothing fixes it


    Whenever the Windows loadscreen passes the screen goes black and I can move a cursor around the screen.
    I have had this happen before and fixed it with bootrec.exe but I can't seem to get that to work this time...
    Startup repair says it cannot help - Safe mode has the exact same black screen problem.
    I have done chkdsk and sfc scannow - Didn't fix it.
    When I boot into Kaspersky Rescue from a USB drive it mentions that I need to shut down windows properly before continuing. I would like to do this but I can't.
    I have tried changing the active partition on information in some of these other threads - It didn't seem to work.
    All disks are healthy according to the DISKPART and Partition Wizard. I have done the HP hardware diagnostic scans and everything comes up fine.

    I see that a lot of the advice on the threads is to do a fresh install - Is it really broken beyond repair at this point?

    Does anyone have any other ways I can try and fix this problem?
