So I installed metro 2033 and the (I believe directX or whatever software games install after pressing play) early this morning and it gave me a black screen due to the incorrect default resolution setting with audio in the background. Ctrl+alt+delete and alt+tab didn't respond so I ended up restarting my PC. I see the windows startup logo and safe mode startup screen. I enter windows normally and my screen is completely black, no mouse or anything. My pc runs fine on safe mode and safe mode with networking, I ran malware bytes with no tracks of viruses. I rolled back my video driver with no success and my computer blue screens when I do a system recovery (which apperaently happens with hard drives over 1 terabyte). I'm busy with work and don't have a lot of time to trouble shoot. I haven't had any problems prior to this and any help or suggestions will be GREATLY appreciated, I can post more specific info about my troubles/steps or specs tomorrow. I need sleep
