    Just received my NV7915U. One problem thus far: when there has been no activity for a certain period of time, Windows 7 returns the the "login" screen, where icons for the various users are presented. When this occurs, the screen is black, and the only way to restore graphics (that I've found so far) is to put the machine to sleep, and then wake it.

    Known problem? Known fix?

    Thanks!
