    I did a Vista32 -> 7 install. Its been good for the last week or two, and I occasionally ran into the problem that it would just give a black screen upon log in - it would still say the stuff in the bottom right about the version and test mode though.

    Well, not it won't go past that screen no matter how many times I try. I did my earliest system restore and that didn't do anything...any ideas beyond a full format?
