My desktop screen is completely black. Nothing on it. I don't know why it happened. I closed out of the internet this morning and there was nothing left. I have tried rebooting, turning the monitor on and off, ect. I have to gain access by CRTL+ALT+DELETE and then going in through the task tool bar. Just wondered if there is a reason for this and if I can perhaps get back to my regular computer life, since that's all I have. LOL. Thanks in advance.
