[QUOTE="Naga, post: 761971, member: 424"] Ran into a problem with 7 on my wife's rig. The screen would go all fuzzy when opening any game/ screensaver or the nVidia "set image quality with preview" tab in the nVidia control panel. It was the same problem which I had faced with Vista on the same 7900GT. On Vista I couldn't log into Windows without the corruption but here it happens only when rendering something. A quick underclock of the factory OCced card's memory fixed the issue. This is a documented glitch on all factory occed 7900GTs with Vista which has been carried over, it seems. There was another issue with installation on my friend's eeePC 1002HA. The screen would go black as soon as reaching the log on screen. Only solution would be pressing the sleep button and waking it up again for the logon screen to be visible. The work around: Set the user account to auto logon. Prepare a bat file with the following code and add it to the start-up folder: [CODE]displayswitch /extend displayswitch /internal[/CODE] This seems to be a BIOS problem with most of the new eeePCs, 10xx series. A permanent workaround is dependent on BIOS updates from Asus. Cannot post my sources for the solutions as I was pretty worked up about the problems and I don't remember which posts/ sites helped me exactly, what with searching over a gazillion sites/ forums and double the work arounds :S ! Edit: Just wanted to mention that my friend's eeePC's got only 1GB RAM and Win 7 is still as fast. No sluggishness whatsoever! [/QUOTE]
