Black screen after boot

Hello.
I am installing on a my friend PC, Arch in dual boot with Windows 10. What I did was: format the main partition, the swap one and also the EFI (just because he wanted to use only GRUB, without having Windows bootloader anymore). After that, i mounted partitions, installed "base base-devel" and "grub", with relative config file. So, after rebooting the computer, after selecting "Arch Linux" from grub menu, the screen become black and I can't view anything. If it can help, the GPU is not the integrated, but dedicated. Could it be caused by that? What can I do? Thanks
