    I'm still not getting anywhere with this problem. I've removed all programs that are likely to be causing this problem with no luck. I'm now beginning to think that it's driver related since booting into safe mode with most drivers disabled seems to work fine.

    I have an almost identical XPS 420 at work running the same version of W7 and the only differences between the 2 would be my Linksys Wireless Network adaptor, my nVidia 8800 GTS and my Creative X-Fi Fatality. Has anyone come across any problems with these drivers in W7?

    I dont think the linksys is the problem, more likely th 8800 or fatality. Might want to search here for solutions to both.

    Thanks Ken,

    It's looking more and more like it's the 8800. I've uninstalled the display driver and W7 seems to boot perfectly every time. The second that the driver has been installed (either through windows update or from nVidia direct), the boot problems begin.

    I'll look for more specific solutions linked to the 8800.

    Cheers
