| | Desktop doesn't load on start-up I get the start button, a black desktop with no icons and a shadow of the task-bar. As soon as I change something in display properties, like refresh rate or theme I am ok, and it will stay ok until I reboot. I have the drivers that were installed automatically by WU when I installed Win 7. I have an XFX GeForce 8800gt. Is anyone else experiencing this. Should I try installing beta drivers? |

Hi oneerc, I had this same kind of thing. But I have the ATI win 7 preview driver. I disabled the ATI external event viewer in services and unchecked the CCC from startup programs and it stopped. I don't know what the equivelant would be for those would with nvidia. If they have a nvidia beta driver for your card for 7, I might try it. |

| | The nVidia WDDM driver is already a part of the system, and a new update puts the WDDM 1.1 driver in there - which I found to be crap. Can you boot into safe mode? |
