the black screen is the graphics card driver. Go onto the internet and download the latest driver
then do your windows updates - Express.
Dont do Microsoft updates, just do windows
XP - update video driver
==================
in XP do this
click start >help and support >type in processor in the search
in the results look for find hardware and in there your video card is displayed
highlite some of the video card text and press control +c to copy it
paste it in google and add driver
in the results pick one that looks like the manufacturer and download the latest driver
if its an exe file just double click it to install.
if its a driver file then right click my computer icon >manage >device manager.
expand display adapter >right click your video card >update driver >point wizard to your file.
reboot.
Right Click the empty space on the desktop> properties> settings. Choose a resolution where the little screen in the window is the same shape as your screen.
