Hi,

I have a clean install of Windows 7 Professional x64. After I type my password at the logon screen, the blue background is supposed to fade away smoothly and show the desktop, but on my machine the transition is jerky.

I have an ATI graphics card and the Catalyst 10.2 drivers. What can I do to make the transition more smooth?

Thanks!
