My daughter's Windows 10 PC has gone into a mode where the [Asus, HDMI-connected] screen works fine at the BIOS boot stage (HP Sure Start and the swirly Windows dots) but as soon as it gets past that, to where you might expect the small Windows 10 logo to be displayed, all she gets is a blank screen. This is still true if I get the PC to boot into safe mode or into low resolution mode. The LED on the monitor indicates that it thinks it is HDMI-connected to a PC, the PC just ain't painting anything on the monitor.
I have generated a boot log which shows stuff being loaded or not loaded, nothing more interesting than that. The PC hard disk light is behaving as if it were fine all the time, we just can't see anything.
She didn't [consciously] do anything before it went into this state, aside from restarting it. BIOS quick tests all pass. Uninstalling the last "quality update" doesn't help.
Before I reset the machine, are there any other things I might try? I can get to a command prompt from the boot screen: is there anything useful I can do, device-driver-wise, from a command prompt? S'pose I could try finding a restore point. Anything else?
