Hello Everyone!
I recently "upgraded" my gaming rig to Windows 10 about 2 weeks ago. It's been working pretty well for the most part. However, last night I shut my pc down after gaming for about 3 hours and noticed that it didn't shut down all the way (or it possibly turned on by itself, it's been doing that a lot lately) and it just had a black screen on the display. I hit the reset button on my case and could not get it to boot. It would always show my bios screen then the windows 10 logo for about 10 second, and then instead of displaying the log in screen it was just a black screen. Finally, after trying many different things I booted in safe mode, and I noticed that my on board graphics and my dedicated GPU were both showing up under display adapters in my device manager. I disabled Intel HD4000 and restarted. This time it booted just fine! Anybody else have this same issue? Is there something I can do to prevent this happening in the future. The only thing I can think of is that maybe a windows updated triggered this. Thanks for the help/advice!
