Ralph,
Windows 7 is nearing  the end of it's support life and MS is aggressively trying to move users to Win 10. SO make sure you have installed Service Pack "One" and you should be OK until 2020  I think the issue may be facing is that Win 7 still uses Internet Explorer as it's Browser and Windows 10 has moved on to a new browser "Edge". I haven't checked to see if MS is even still supporting IE. Around 48% of the world is still using Win 7.  You might want to check if some start-up add-ons have gotten in to your system without your knowledge.  I use what used to be called Crap Cleaner now called CCLEANER By Piraform  to keep the system cleaned of trash that builds up over time. I use the free version. Then I use a paid for diagnostic and system cleaner from IOBIT, I can't think of name right now but it is very comprehensive catching all the crap that floats around on the Internet.  It's not all that expensive less than  $20 a year. I've learned to appreciate all that it does to keep the system running at peak performance.  It's called Advanced System Care by IOBIT.  I would recommend that.

Microsoft doesn't know which update is causing the problem. I find that hard to believe but that is what I have been told. Anyway, I have had to send my computer out for repair to get it back to normal. First time in my life I have not been able to fix any PC problem, hardware or software,  that came along since the personal computer was invented. I guess there is a first time for everything. So.... if you are using Windows 10 and you get a black screen on sign in, go get professional help ASAP.
This one is still Windows 7 and it has been limping for several years 
now. Several months ago it started just crashing in the middle of 
whatever I was doing. For no obvious reason. I've done clean ups and 
system restores but no matter. Every few days or sometimes every day, it 
will just crash. Go through the restart and it is fine. For a while.
