Well, things didn't work as planned, but I'm back to "normal" again. I re-installed all programs that had been installed prior to the reboot errors. I used Revo Uninstaller to uninstall those. I LOVE Revo!! I have dreamed about something like this since the first Windows.
But, I still had 1hr restarts. (talk about a disincentive to try things) I backed up any data on the Vista drive and did a long format. Didn't help. I disconnected all but the Win 7 drive and did a custom install. It didn't seem to help, so I removed all but the win7 and data drives. While I had the case open, I rearranged the drives in the cage, cleaned the front fan and did some cable tidying. Turned the system on and booted to the sign in in a couple seconds and almost instantly to the desktop after signin.
I wasn't completely awake and actually thought I'd have the opportunity to do a clean install. I was surprised to find all of my programs and settings intact. Though I'm certainly not complaining!
