    I just got my T400 for a couple weeks and loving it.

    During bootup my screen would turn black for a few seconds and then I would see my desktop - is this normal?

    Also, a few times - the screen would turn black. I would have to put the laptop into suspend mode and then back to see my desktop. Is this normal?

    I have installed (re-installed) the video drivers from Lenovo's web site already.

    TIA
