I got a good one for you to try to figure out, I'm stumped with Win7 startup issue?

Hello. I have am having an issue the last few days while starting Windows 7 Professional. When I am not on my computer for several hours; I notice when Windows 7 starts, I am getting a black screen. Normally, I have my desktop up and running most of the time each day using it. Let me explain… …‘normally’ after I get the Windows’s animated flag to be created at the beginning of Windows 7 startup, I normally get a half-second black screen, then I get the Welcome/Logon screen with the default blue Windows 7 background. Yes, this is normal for all of us. What has been happening lately is that I get stuck at the half-second black screen, never getting to the Welcome/Logon screen and no mouse curser either. Again, this happens when I do not have my computer running for several hours. I have waited over 10 minutes while at the black screen and I never get out of it. I wait for the Welcome/Logon screen to appear and it doesn’t. I know from past experience, usually some sort of updating may be happening during this period before the Welcome/Logon screen… …but yet I KNOW WITH WINDOWS 7, the “updating” occurs FOLLOWING the Welcome/Logon screen with the messages in the middle of the Windows 7 blue background. (But no Windows Updates are happening however.) Now if I hit my reset button on my tower while I am in the black screen waiting, I am able to get to the Windows 7 Welcome/Logon screen after a reboot.

A couple of days ago after a long period of not having my computer running for a few hours, I did the reboot and that time I never got to the Welcome/Logon screen. I rebooted again, and I was able to logon into Windows 7 ‘safe mode’. After my desktop fully loaded in safe mode, I rebooted yet again, and I was able to get into Windows7’s Welcome/Logon screen in normal/regular mode. So far after a single reboot when this black screen happens, I am able to get into Window 7’s Welcome/Logon screen.

If I IMMEDIATELY reboot RIGHT NOW right after being on my Windows 7 desktop RIGHT NOW, I CAN GET into Windows 7 Welcome/Logon screen RIGHT AFTER a reboot – no issues here.

So what could be the cause? Any ideas what/why this is happening after longer periods of having my computer not running and unable to get the Windows 7 Welcome/Logon screen?

Please provide your suggestions or solutions if you have some idea what is going on.

Please reply.

Thank you!
