    about a year ago I bought a gx640-260 a few months later sometimes when I tried to turn it on the screen would go black after reaching the windows startup page. Usually I could get past it by just doing a system recovery but now its gotten to the point where I can't do that anymore so now the only way I can even use my computer is by going into safe mode. I've done some research on this and I know I need to update my BIOS/VBIOS/Drivers and I've gone through the tutorials on the MSI website but for whatever reason I can't get it to work. Can someone who's dealt with this problem (or something like it) show me how to fix this problem: how to make a bootable flash drive/what settings I need to put my computer on/ and how to properly get the bios and I'm just rambling now so yeah I need help thanks.

    Actually, if you are having that issue it is likely a driver related problem. Have you tried reinstalling the Windows OS and updating all of the drivers?
