Fix found - my black screen login problems!

This quick fix worked for me after two days of sweating, cursing, troubleshooting:
1. Rename local.dat file found in Guild Wars 2 folder (where gw2.exe is). Make sure you can view file extensions. You can probably move or delete this file since it gets recreated whenever you run the game, but I just renamed it to local.old
2. Power off then on my little router, and my internet provider’s modem.

Havent seen the black screen problem for a few days. If it happens again, I might try just step 1 (without step 2) and see what happens.

Note in my specific case, the following did NOT fix the problem:
upgrading Nvidia drivers did not fix the problem
restoring Nvidia settings to original specs
running “gw2.exe -repair”
increasing or resetting virtual memory
changing display settings
praying to the six gods

Hope this helps someone out there!
