I tried 6.14.10.3722 and it hung up my tablet. I checked but isn't that driver for 830,845, 865 chipset?

Reference to Vga termination. Are you talking about terminating Red , Green, blue signals to ground via 75 ohm resistor? If you are, do you have to use three seperate resistors or just tie RGB signals together and ground via one resistor? Other possiblity, can you just terminate the Green signal for this to work?
I too have a 700M, running W7 RC (build 7100). This is the only proposed solution that worked for me. I haven't restarted yet (fingers crossed), but I'm hopeful. I had previously run the following command as well (not sure if this was necessary):
1. Open Command Prompt (Run As Administrator)
2. execute that command: bcdedit /set testsigning no
I have since restarted just fine. I guess I should also mention the fix above took me two attempts (and I waited about 7 mins with the black screen before rebooting the second time). I think the first time I just restarted before it was done installing the driver (it's hard to tell what's going on when your screen is blank :P ).

You asked, and I can deliver. The 0x7E STOP blue screen is occuring due to the new boot animation in Win7 which runs at 1024x768 and the crash occurs when the resolution changes at the end of that (since the driver was written when no resolution change occurred then). Strangely it only crashes if an external monitor isn't attached. So if you avoid the new boot animation that forces the old boot VGA resolution (640x480) that the driver can handle, and the blue screen doesn't occur. That can be achieved by running msconfig and checking Boot->OS boot information. Instead of the animation you now get text showing driver loads and the 0x7E STOP blue screen is avoided. And now you don't need an external monitor connected each time you reboot.
Unfortunately this didn't help me as I instead (with the above workaround or an external monitor attached) now get a 0x50 STOP blue screen immediately at logon with my Fujitsu Stylistic 5021D Tablet PC .
However, I did finally discover that the 3722 driver does work for me. BUT I had to reboot about 4 times before it stopped installing the driver at logon / giving me a code 43. All other builds of the driver just kept getting uninstalled indefinitely. So now I can reboot without problems and the machine can sleep and hibernate. Unfortunately this driver doesn't support portrait but given it works for everything else, I'm pretty happy.
I also tried 4421 and 4497 drivers but both of these had the uninstalled at logon issue and I couldn't find a way to prevent that - none of the various suggestions in this long thread had any effect.
Update:- Found out how to enable rotation. Add these registry keys:
HKLM\Software\Intel\CUI\DISPLAY1\EnableRotation = (DWORD)1
HKLM\Software\Intel\CUI\DISPLAY2\EnableRotation = (DWORD)1
and reboot.

Yea, Many thanks for your mentioning 0x7E STOP issue... I am now able to start my windows 7 copy in my 7 years old 700m seamlessly

Yes, thank you for this simple fix. You are very clever for working this out!
My only problem now is my Dell 700m powering off randomly. This may be due to overheating (as mentioned earlier), although the system has never done this with XP. Does anyone know if any of the new Win7 power options/features might be doing something to system temperature (via the fan or clock speed etc.) that would cause the system to overheat?
