Windows 10 Upgrade Problems: Black Screen After Updating (New)
Some users taking advantage of the Windows 10 Upgrade are finding that after the upgrade has finished their device just gives them a black screen and won’t start.
Microsoft is still working on a fix for this, but there isn’t a way to avoid it right now. Worse, it seems that the issue is happening on multiple PC configurations. For now, we can only suggest using the back up utilities that came with your device and creating some external media back up before you start the upgrade in case this happens. If this happens and you live near a Microsoft Store, make an appointment with them to have your device looked at if you run into the issue. Some, reports, (like those from our comments) indicate that deactivating virus programs before performing the upgrade prevents this issue.

I put off putting in Windows 10 for 3 months but last night (11-22-2015) I decided to do it & I hope I don't regret it. My worst fear was having to re-enter all of my passwords, losing my FAVORITES, seeing a different looking screen & most of all my security online banking. So far all of the above came true. I'm going to give it a week & if it doesn't get easier, I'm going to delete Windows 10 & get my old Windows 7 loaded back in!
