Display goes black at logon screen hp dv6000Closed

Question

Hi people, 
    I tried searching the forum but since nothing I found actually resembled the problem I'm having I decided to start a new thread. 
   I have a dv6000 series laptop and whenever I try to start windows normally, the screen goes black seconds after the logon screen comes up! It doesn't do this whenever I start it in safe mode and I have also tried to use the "last known good configuration" and start in lower resolution to no avail.... Any ideas or suggestions? If you need any other info, let me know! Thanks!

Hello,

Try this 1.

1) When you switch ON your computer, start tapping the "F8" key to get

"Windows Advanced Options"( if boot menu appears, press "Esc" key and keep

tapping the F8 key)

2) Select "Safe Mode with Networking"

3) Click on Start --> Run --->  Type regedt32 and press Enter.

Registry Editor will be opened. Navigate to the following location

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

At the right side, find the strings shell & userinit and check the following

shell value data should be
Explorer.exe

userinit value data should be
C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,

If shell and userinit are having different data values then change it as mentioned

above.

Just double click shell and userinit and enter the data values as

shell --> "Value data" should be
Explorer.exe

userinit --> "Value data" should be
C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,

Note: there is "," at the end of userinit.exe

Then download "Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware" from the below link.

Update it and perform "Full Scan"

Note : Default selected option is "Quick Scan"

Good Luck.
