When I turn on my laptop and choose to load Windows 7 (I have Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04 dual-booted) everything goes fine up until the point where the login page comes up. After my account is automatically chosen (it is the only account and I have no password set) it looks like Windows is going to log on but nothing shows up.

This started happening after I got a screen (upon startup) asking me to let Windows scan for/fix some problems, or something like that.

I've been trying to use Ubuntu but I just can not get used to Linux.

Let me know what I need to do to get this fixed!

It sounds as if your video driver may be the cause.
This sounds like the time that Windows goes from standard VGA into XVGA.
Can you boot into safe mode?

Yes, safe mode boots perfectly fine.

Hi Desert Rooster,

Since the computer is able to work fine in safe mode, boot the computer to safe mode and scan your system for viruses/spyware. Then go into "msconifg" and uncheck any programs that run on windows bootup that you don't really need running. Also, perform a check disk repair on the computer and see if that helps out too. Hope your get your computer issue resolve.
