    Hi there,

    I formatted my m1530 after about three weeks of having it, installed 64 bit ultimate, didn't like it so i reinstalled 32 bit ultimate. My laptop was working fine for about a month, but now every time I log on, it takes quite a long time to get past the 'Welcome' loading process, and then a light blue screen with a cursor appears for a while (varying amounts of time - can be a really long time) until windows loads. I have had a BSOD here twice as well. I think that it may be due to the graphics driver but I cannot be sure. Any suggestions?

    Thanks.
