Black screen during upgrade & passwords problem

The screen on my LAPTOP is black, they keyboard is unresponsive and there is no mouse-pointer.

Are you saying I should put my DESKTOP into safe mode?

Ian

My laptop runs WIndows 8.1 (I think). When I get an upgrade it restarts and the screen goes BLACK FOREVER. Sometimes I give up and power off and it sometimes comes right.

Also I am STILL getting problems on both machines with AVG wiping my Firefox passwords.

Hi Ian,

We are sorry to hear this.

Are you facing this issue during the AVG Update or Windows update?

Did you try to reinstall the AVG program after this issue?

Regarding the FireFox, are you facing this issue after you making some changes with the AVG TuneUp?

Keep us posted.

Ian, we realize the situation.
Please try booting your PC into safe mode as mentioned in this article.
If you are able to get into safe mode successfully, try to uninstall AVG Internet Security.
Once it is done, restart the computer and check whether it logs into windows normally.
If yes, we can confirm that the problem is because of AVG Internet Security.
Keep us posted.

Ian, this must be a conflict with the recent windows update.
Since the PC is not starting up in safe mode as well, we'd request you to contact a local technician or Microsoft support for help.
