that worked, thanks everyone for the troubleshooting.

@themcv @Sebastian-Roth That is looking to be the fix… The on server size now shows ~48GB and only took 15min to upload to the server. I am deploying the image to another laptop and the ETA is 12min. Thank you for your help. FYI, we build our images from scratch with Win10 download from Microsoft with a SA agreement so it must be a built in thing .

@george1421 said in Blank Screen with Blinking cursor in top left corner:

Apologies for the delayed reply I am off on military duty with limited internet. They are set to UEFI mode, how would I go about getting a resolution on the rEFInd exe not finding the disk for 1 specific laptop model?

That is correct, also I verified the “default exit mode” and it is set to REFIND_EFI. Would a Windows, bios or driver update have this affect?

We are having an issue, we get a black screen and blinking cursor in the upper left corner after the Fog splash screen to boot to Hard Drive. So far it is isolated to Dell Latitude 5570’s that we have been able to identify. We have different models out there, Dell Latitude 5530 to 5590. If we ESC past the pxe-boot it will boot to Windows like it is suppose too.

Fog version: 1.5.5

I am having the same issue, with the black screen and blinking cursor in the upper left corner after the Fog splash screen to boot to Hard Drive. So far it is isolated to Dell Latitude 5570’s that I have found was there a fix?

@george1421 But we don’t activate/use Bitlocker…

@sebastian-roth this all you were looking for? or did you need more detail on a particular drive?

@sebastian-roth

@george1421 we are not using legacy mode in the bios we are using the UEFI boot mode.

@george1421 I didn’t see a 6th column below (assuming you meant row) is what I got.
