need to see the entire white screen to see what you have vs what is on the os install media.

As of right now there a few issues.

I'm trying to install 88 Fortune and my seller suspect that due to the OS being a newer one it won't install the game. The thing is the black screen error is new to me.

You don't need to re-install OS every time you change a game.  You already have the OS and your BIOS is the latest one that will work with your MPU type.  All you have to do now, is install the game.  Fortune 88 should work with the OS you have installed at the moment.
