windows logon prompt is balck...

[akalinowski]

i can login just fine, but the text boxes for user name and password are blacked out to the point where i cant see my user name or the *'s for the password, also the windows logo is black... see link, i placed a screen shot of it there.

I'm totally lost, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Looks like a video/graphics issue to me. Can you change your settings after you login?

Try changing your resolution, color depth, etc. to see if it corrects it.

It looks like a color depth issue to me as well. Perhaps the administrator log-in has been set with low color depth or something. Try logging in as the administrator, fix the color depth or change it to something else, then log-out and see if that helps.

Good luck
