Is my window infected by virus or corrupted?

maybe it is a virus. i had experienced this and i had to do system restore. during the black screen, open task manager, select application tab and click new task... type explorer.exe.

download and install Malwarebytes' anti-malware.
download and install hijackthis and get a log from it. post it here.

can you get in through safe mode?
