    Hello,

    I cant start up Windows 7 64 bit on a studio 1737 anymore.
    Used to work fine, but after a blue screen i cannot get it to work.
    It keeps hanging at the loading screen without the windows7 logo and safe mode also doesnt work.
    Tried all other options with the advanced startup.
    I've read that maybe with a bios updater the problem will be solved but i tried that before i had this problem but the flash utility doesnt seem to work also.

    Anyone has these problems or could help me?


    Thanks in advance,

    What BIOS did you have on the 1737?

    and how did you install W7? Clean install reformat or installed over top of Vista 64-bit?

    Dell's Driver site does have a new A07 BIOS that says it gets the 1737 "Ready" for windows 7, but its not Mandatory or even urgent.
