This is what macmanx Staff has said:

The issue definitely a Chrome problem. If it came back, it's still a Chrome problem and needs to be reported to them. There is nothing that we can do here.

First, make sure that you are running at least version 18.0.1025.151: http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95414

If you are, report the issue to Google, and try a different browser for now.

Before it totally loads, the entire screen goes black. I am experiencing it with all of my blogs. If Ibypass and go to post new topic or something/anything other than clicking on dashboard, I do get a nice page. I appear to only have this problem when I click on dashboard.

Google must have made some changes... Anyway, yesterday I read that what you did (whatever it is, because I cannot find the Catalyst Control Center) is only a temporary solution that can affect Chrome graffics in the long run; just in case you did not know. If you are capable of reaching the forum, let me know please.

I tried to make them pretty simple, but I understand the confusion. Unfortunately, that's what worked for me, and I'm not too in on the technical talk. So, I'm not sure how else to explain it. Peruse that forum and hopefully that will help you out.
Sorry!

zambullida, if you aren't able to follow the steps above, you might want to try Firefox or any other browser for a day or two. Google is usually pretty quick about fixing bugs like this.

It's a temporary fix because apparently the Chrome people are working on a solution. This worked for me on an intel with Radeon Graphics on Windows 7.

Here's what to do:
Right Click on your desktop
Choose "Configure Switchable Graphics" or something similar
This pulls up the catalyst control center (at least for me)
Then switch Google Chrome to Economy Mode or Power Saving Mode. Not High Performance Mode.

Hope that helps!

monfog, I also have the same problem on Flickr (the black screen). I cannot even register! Yet, Facebook, Yahoo, Gmail and many other places work very well, as usual. As you said, it is weird. We will see what happens. I am longing to hear from Google.

When the dashboard goes black, I can click in the left sidebar (where the menu normally is) and whatever I click, opens. So when it goes black I click the sidebar, and then navigate where I need to go from there. The only part of wordpress that goes black is the dashboard.

Pinterest does the same thing. Clicking on an individual pin brings the black screen but clicking in the middle where the pin is located opens the pin site.

It's very weird.

If you have any, you might want to disable those.

Otherwise, I'd say it's up to the Chrome folks.

It appears to be only an issue with Chrome. I'm using Firefox today and it's not doing it.

And yes, it is exactly the same problem as what is being reported in the other forum dialog.
