I recently downloaded Kali and started to get it setup on my computer, the installation went fine although Windows 10 put me through some unneeded hoops. After the installationI'm greeted with this pleasant black screen. (http://i.imgur.com/UMrHiQF.png) As you can probably understand this isn't supposed to happen, so I researched it and done what I could but so far whatever fix has been recommend for others hasn't changed it. Down below I'll put down my system specs and also my settings for my VM, hopefully someone here has an idea so I can get back to my Uni work.

Please ignore this post, I came back from work and my brain clicked. For some reason the virtual disk didn't have my ISO image so it was literally reading nothing. For some reason I never realized.

Based on the screenshot, it looks like you're using Oracle VirtualBox. Have you tried the pre-built VM images at offensive-security.com?
