For the blank screen issue, choose the Ubuntu recovery mode option from the GRUB menu. Login and then type startx. What happens? Also, what video card are you using?

Re: Ubuntu is loading but login screen is not loading
The card is built in to your motherboard ..
when booting try booting using safemode graphics (VESA) as a precaution against haveing problems later and BEFORE you do anything else .. back up your windows programs documents and partition for recovery in case anything goes bad. you may need to re-install Ubuntu but this time after choosing your installation language ( booting from Live CD) choose F4 the safemode graphics, then enter , enter. Do this only if you have no files in Ubuntu you want to keep and only after you have backed up your Windows installation and files
