this morning i installed some software after that my pc screen turns blank within five seconds all i can see is my curser.
steps i took:-
repair option even then it didnt work

one of my friend recommended me enter ctrl+alt+del,from there click on file,you will see new task(run) and i typed explorer.exe.
then i could see all my shortcuts but again after 5 seconds everything dissappears.

could anyone help.i have got one option that is to format my pc but there could be something else to solve this problem.
thanks

How to do that?

Though you have solved your problem but still I tell you. Go to Start menu>Accessories>System tools>system restore Here click on next and select any restore point prior to the date the problem started.
