Yesterday I upgraded my computer with Win 8,1 to Win 10, and I really regret doing that, because after the installation I restartet the PC and a black screen with a visible cursor appeared. I read somewhere that I can log on by pressing ctrl and then typing my password, and so I did. But that didnt help much, cause then only the background and the procesline appeared. Win can start programs/windows, but not display then. They are only visible on the procesline.Furthermore the right buttom corner is missing the icons.

I have downloaded win 10 on my laptop to a USB-drive, and then used the USB to reinstall Windows 10, but the same issue keeps repeating. After the installation everything works fine, but after a restart/shut Down I get the Black screen. Does anybody have any clue about what is going on, and how I can fix it? After the installation (before a restart) I can apply changes but not for long, because Windows crashes/freezes very easily! I can not recommend upgrading to win 10 at all. My PC is a Asus ROG G20AJ.

What I saw on other sites and helped me get it working, is that for some reason, Windows thinks that you have 2 monitors and your laptop screen is the secondary not the primary. (That is why you see the bar on bottom once you get it logged in (even though you can't see the login screen).) Try to press windows + P (this invokes the ability to move the display to different screens, projectors.) and then the down arrow once and hit enter. If that doesn't work try pressing Windows + P again but this time press the down arrow twice. If that doesn't work try doing it again this time pressing it 3 times. Another option which I initially used to prove this theory, was I plugged in a monitor to my laptop, and voila, the main screen was there, however Windows thought again that there is another screen attached to my laptop and I did not see the far right bottom corner of the file explorer bar (where the WiFi, battery, clock and other icons are).

Additionally, every time I tried to open an app it opened but I was not able to see it, as it was on the 'other' phantom screen. Again using Windows+P I was able to move it all on the current screen. I then went to settings (windows key and then settings) and played with the Display and it seems to be working now.

I had as well updated the driver for my screen, but I don't think that has anything to do with the issue. BTW, I have an old Lenovo ThinkPad T400.
