[QUOTE="geov, post: 527364, member: 26381"] Did you do a fresh install of Windows7, or upgrade XP? If you upgraded, which its sounds like you did....then I would say thats your problem. There is almost always an incompatible driver or software lurking somewhere. Rather do a fresh, dual-boot install of Windows7 and test it to make sure everything is working...then just delete XP when you are happy. Its very easy to partition your drive directly from the windows7 installation DVD, which is what I've done... I'm still testing Windows7, but know that if something doesn't work I can just boot into my previous installation. This way I'm also guaranteed that Windows7 will install all the correct drivers, and will not clash with anything I've already got installed. [/QUOTE]
