    Hey everyone,

    I have a T61 running Windows 7 RTM and upon a successful undocking when I remove the laptop from the dock and open the lid, the screen is all black. I have an nVidia 140m graphics card and the latest drivers installed from Lenovo's support site (for Vista x64). Is this likely the problem, or would it be something else? Thanks in advance.

    Well you are using windows 7...don't expect everything to work so perfectly until it is actually released. You could try fiddling around with older drivers though. That doesn't hurt.
