Windows 7 windows 7 x86 weird start up problem

[fr3kvent]

Hello!

So yesterday I got for myself a fresh Windows 7 ultimate x86 on my desktop pc. Everything seemed working really good, but the first problem occured after i shut it down and turned it on again. It is something similar to this so called "black window" problem, but I dont think its the same. It always happens when I first turn on my pc on the first boot. After I restart it everything works kind of fine. When I boot my pc after it has been shut down "windows loading screen" is not in the center of screen, after like 10 seconds all I got is black screen and all I am able is to just move cursor (cntrl + alt + delete doesnt work). Everything seems in some weird resulotion I guess. After restarting it, everything goes as usual, windows loading screen is in the center, but this first-boot thing is really annoying. Any help?

Thanks!

It seems like you're encountering a display resolution issue upon the initial boot of your Windows 7 Ultimate x86 system. This problem where the Windows loading screen is not centered and the display seems to be in a strange resolution could be due to a few reasons. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and address this issue:

Troubleshooting Steps:​

1. Update Graphics Drivers:
   • Check if your graphics drivers are up to date. Outdated drivers can cause display issues. Visit the manufacturer's website and download the latest drivers for your graphics card.
   []Adjust Screen Resolution:
   • Right-click on the desktop and select "Screen Resolution." Ensure that the resolution settings are correct. Set the resolution to the recommended setting for your display.
   []Check Startup Programs:
   • Disable unnecessary startup programs that may be conflicting with the display settings. To do this, type "msconfig" in the Start menu and go to the "Startup" tab.
   []System File Checker:
   • Run the System File Checker tool to scan for and repair corrupted system files that may be causing the issue. Open a command prompt with administrative privileges and run the command: sfc /scannow
   []Check Event Viewer:
   • Check the Event Viewer for any error messages related to the display issue. Look for clues in the logs that may point to the root cause of the problem.
   []Boot into Safe Mode:
   • Boot into Safe Mode to see if the problem persists. If the issue does not occur in Safe Mode, it might indicate a software conflict.
   []BIOS Update:
   • Ensure that your motherboard's BIOS is up to date. Check the manufacturer's website for any BIOS updates and follow the instructions to update it.
2. Check for Malware:
   • Perform a full system scan with a reliable antivirus program to rule out malware causing the display issue.

     Additional Tips:​

     • Keep your Windows operating system and drivers updated.
     • Avoid installing unnecessary software that might conflict with the system.
     • If the issue persists, consider upgrading to a newer version of Windows for better compatibility and support.
     By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and potentially resolve the display issue you are experiencing during the first boot of your Windows 7 system. Let me know if you need further assistance!
