Black screen? Sounds racist...
Well, at least MS improves on the colors though from blue to black. Maybe Windows 8 will have the red screen of death..
To: FromLori
the "black screen of death" Black is the new blue.

Erg. Seven came on my new computer. Please, God, spare me this—I’ve had SO many other computer problems in the pas several months and I desperately need a functional machine so I can look for work!

Reports suggest the flaw also affects Vista, XP and other systems. Then why wasn't it reported years ago? Something smells fishy. I'm emailing Whitehouse.gov.

Hmmm. Upgraded to Win 7 Ultimate on my Latitude E6400 last week - have downloaded all updates - no problems thus far. In fact I love it, Win 7 is MUCH cleaner than Vista.

They could do a commercial where the screen goes black, and then the Apple guy could have a flashlight.
To: FromLori
Software firm Prevx, which has issued a fix for the problem... Most likely malware they installed in the first place.

A patch problem. Iow, take your chances with your video card, RAM shadowing, etc. and see if you get the problem. Since it’s video I suspect a Safe Mode boot + updating/changing the video driver would resolve it.

Most likely there will be a big uproar since even losing money is racist now.
