Have any of you tried using "Windows XP Mode" for Windows 7 to try to stop the crashing to desktop? I found it at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/vir.../download.aspx and was curious if any have tried it already, and if yes, did this help?

How odd. I was JUST coming back to this thread to talk about that. I had this idea myself (I didn't see that page, I'll have to look). I decided to try XP SP2 mode. No crashes since, though it has only been a day and that means little with this bug, as I have found it (I've reported it fixed like 3 times already).

What I HAVE seen, is suddenly my screen will flash black for like half a second, not very often. I am thinking this might have represented a crash to desktop in non XP mode. I'd advise you and anyone else with this problem running Windows 7 (I have 64 bit) to give it a try.
