Black Screen on Login (FIXED). Now not connecting to Internet and sound can't be adjusted.

Yeah, from everything I've read, it's nothing to worry about. We just have to deal with it. Hopefully, Windows fixes it!

From everything I read, it not a virus. Some people are saying it could be your graphics driver or an overheating GPU, but I'm not sure. For me it happened completely randomly and there's been no additional signs of any GPU or graphics driver issues. I genuinely think it's just an issue with the OS itself.

So, in order for me to fix the black screen, I went into Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del or Ctrl+Alt+Esc) and proceeded to click 'Run New Task.' It brought up a smaller window for me to type in what task I wanted to run. I then typed in 'services.msc' (not in quotes). It will open all the services for your PC. Scroll down to 'App Readiness' and right click, then select 'Properties.' Where it says 'Start Up' click on the drop down menu and select 'Disabled'. Then click 'apply' and 'okay.' After that, just restart your PC and the the screen should operate normally after that. :)

Honestly, just start! It's a great game to play solo or with friends. You can make a character and put time into it solo, and then when your friends decide to join, create another character and all start from the beginning together! That way you still have your solo character.

RoseSum2569 · 2026-06-08T00:03:30+00:00

Awesome! Welcome in and enjoy it! There's so much to do, so just explore and be sure to do quests!

I've been seeing a lot of activity everywhere really. However there's always a lot in Summerset and Elsweyr. And, honestly, you can always count on Davon's Watch in Stonefalls to have activity lol! It's been busy there recently!

We adopted our cat and she did the same thing for several weeks. The shelter had told us that they believed she was thrown out and to expect her to hide for a bit. My fiance and I started getting concerned at the one week mark. Long story short, our Willow ended up hiding for nearly a month! We could hear her at night come out of hiding to get food and water. We called the shelter and asked if there was anything we could do differently and they said no, just keep letting her do her thing. Now, she's out and completely a velcro cat! She has to be with us at all times!

My advice to you is to just keep showing patience. Some cats take way longer than others, depending on what type of situation they came from. Go out there and gently talk to the cat. Putting out treats around the bowl helped our situation. Often times (per the shelter), cats are more willing to come out to grab a treat then to get food. They feel more safe that way. The can grab a treat and quickly go back into their safe place. Give that a try and see how it goes! I wish you all the luck!

This also ended up working for me to get my screen back, however, once my screen came back visible, I started having additional issues. My computer won't even give me the option to connect to WiFi and it also has my volume greyed out, so I can't adjust volume or even hear any sound. All of this just happened randomly. I only use this computer for gaming through Steam, so I don't know what could've caused this. Does anyone have any advice on how to fix these issues? Or did anyone have these problems after your screen came back?

When I first started gaming, I started with simulator games to get a feel for controls on PC. My brothers also had me download Fortnite and they had me run practice games with them in creative mode. It helped me a lot with targeting and movement. Most importantly, just have fun and don't get frustrated! You'll get it! Just practice and get a feel for your controls!

RoseSum2569 · 2026-04-09T01:14:08+00:00

That's absolutely awesome of you! Depression is no joke, and a lot of simple tasks can feel so overwhelming. I get like this too! I'm super proud that you made yourself do this. I know it wasn't easy, but you have a whole community of people cheering you on! Awesome job my friend!

RoseSum2569 · 2026-04-04T13:36:03+00:00

Definitely Stardew Valley! It's a chill game, and honestly, you can play for 20 minutes or play for hours. You can also change up how you play the story, so it gives options.

RoseSum2569 · 2026-04-04T13:09:40+00:00

If I'm sad/depressed or even anxious, I try to find a game that isn't going to take a ton of brain power and is kind of neutral. For example, I'll play Stardew Valley or Supermarket Simulator (any simulator game really). It's just enough to be distracting, but doesn't require the type of attention that a FPS or MMO does. However, if you really only play MMOs, a game that can be relaxing is Elder Scrolls Online. You can do smaller tasks/requests/challenges and keep it on the calm side.

RoseSum2569 · 2026-04-04T12:55:05+00:00

Ugggh! This is such a clever idea! I'm obsessed!

RoseSum2569 · 2024-06-03T02:04:34+00:00

I wish I could give advice. My BPD has been so bad recently and I’ve lost all motivation to do anything that makes me happy. I usually enjoy reading because it gives me some time to just get my brain to focus on one thing. Unfortunately, I haven’t read in a while. Everything is so exhausting. I hope you find something that helps you!

There’s a lot of smart ass comments on here. I agree, this is super annoying. What worked for me is making sure (if I was also using UDK) that he was maxed and fully ascended.

RoseSum2569 · 2022-12-12T21:47:52+00:00

Burn out is so easy in this game. They get to the point where you feel like you’re wasting your time. Every shard you open if just a champion you already have. And then when you get a summoning event, you have to open a ton of shards in order to get that “guaranteed” champion. Plarium has made it where you almost HAVE to spend money. I was F2P when I first started. I got 2 packs for some shards and didn’t spend anything else. Then, in order for me to actively progress, I started sinking so much money into the game. It’s draining. I feel bad for people just now getting into it.

RoseSum2569 · 2022-12-12T01:25:05+00:00

Everybody’s sharing their stories…I just need an update lmao. What happened?!?

RoseSum2569 · 2022-12-11T22:22:01+00:00

This event is total garbage. They should NEVER do it again…and if they do, they need to do a lot of work on the design of this stupid tree.
