Does "a pitch black screen" literally mean that? You can't see the sidebar, your browser menu, taskbar... nothing? Or you mean just the tabletop is black? If it's just the canvas, ask the GM to give you permission on another player's character that is working. Can you see now? Then the token is the problem. Also let your GM know, if they don't already, that they can shift + long-left-click to centre all players' views to the spot on the map. That way they can make sure you're not just staring at the wrong side of the map, which is supposed to be unexplored. If your entire screen is black it is almost certainly your PC that needs attention.
