White screen After I sign into windows all I get is a white screen. Can't get into safe mode.

it sounds like you may have a virus.have you tried starting in safe mode.

A white blank screen? That sounds like the virus changed your display settings. Click Ctrl+Alt+Del to get to the task manager. Press and hold the Ctrl key plus the Alt Key then hit the Del key. When the task manager opens up Click File at the upper left corner of the window then select New Task RUN. When the create New Task Window opens type: explorer.exe and hit OK. See if it starts populating your desktop icons and shows the start menu and task bar. If so, the virus changed your settings.

To change your display background click Start/Control Panel and look for Display or Appearance and Personalization. When it opens select the Desktop tab and change the desktop background. Hopefully the white will go away.

You may have to get into Safe Mode to do the above if the virus disabled the Task Manager.

Turn the computer off Turn the computer on Immediately hit F8 several times a second until a black and white menu appears, if you get the windows splash, you missed it. Start over Select which way you want windows to start in safe mode You will get a lot of white messages on a black screen You will then get a message that says proceed to safe mode or do a system restore to recover Proceed to safe mode.
If this answers your question, I'd appreciate 4 thumbs up as I do this for fun.

You must go through the safe mode and uninstall your graphics driver and install another one, may be you will find more compatible driver with your graphics card and your windows copy on gateway website.

I would boot in safe mode and attempt to run a scan for viruses or malware. That is what I would think the problem was
You could also do a system restore to before this problem started in safe mode. If you dont know how to get to safe mode google it. something like "Safe mode Windows Vista"

this might be an issue with a corrupted settings on the windows normal mode. try doing msconfig on safe mode and uncheck everything on startup. if this wont fix it, reinstall windows.

You might need to restore your system. To do this go to Windows, click accessories, click system tools then click system restore. Restore back your machine the date before you updated your windows.

This is not a good sign. If you are seeing the dots, which I am assuming they are in rows, or some line-like uniformity, when you first boot and on the Startup screen for Safe Mode (which is before Windows loads), this is an obvious indication that your video card has gone bad, and needs to be replaced. There is no software being loaded until you see the login screen to windows, or atleast the blue login screen flashes. This means you need to replace your video card. Fortunately, this is usually neither expensive, nor that hard. A decent video card can go for around $50 or more, depending on your needs. If you are a gamer or graphic designer, then a higher-end card will be more. Putting a new card in is not as hard as it may seem, but you may have experience on this. Let me know if I can be of further assistance, but this should solve your problem.

probably u deleted some files from windows ...

after booting press F8, (or F5 ..i donlt rememdber) and then select go to safe mode! If it works than try and see what is missing, and back up u;re data.

If it doesn't work than u;ll have to reinstall u;re windows ...

try to boot in safe mode.

1. Press F8 again and again while making switch on you lap till you get the boot option screen
2. Then select Safe mode

• If your windows starts and you can see on the screen, that means your display driver is missing, install driver for VGA and reboot in normal mode.
• If even in safe mode you can't see any pic on the screen it means there is some problem in your display LCD and its time to take a tour to service centre

Thanks
