    Give it a clean install and it should be fixed.

    Sorry about the gap. I have been crazy busy. Will do this tonight and re-add all drivers. Hopefully this is the silver bullet.

    Thanks,

    Hi There,

    I did a re-install last night and thought we had it licked. It seems to restart perfectly fine but a cold boot still causes a freeze at the windows start logo. What I did this time around is not to load anything from the cd's that came with the parts. Instead I let windows 7 update what it felt like. Then I did the 3 optional updates (vid card, lan and monitor). Not sure if that was wise, in hind sight I was going to not do the vid card one but it passed the windows compatibility. I might roll it back and see what happens. Not sure what else to do. I think the card works fine because when I do the restart after a safe mode everything boots and runs as normal including video, games and pictures. Very weird.

    So I've noticed my guru has been expelled. As a follow up, it still still not working after an 2 reinstalls and everu driver I can find. I am going to send the card back to the manufacturer for testing.
