1) Before installing W7 did you run the compatibility checker?

2) After installing W7 did you download and install all appropriate drivers (including the display driver)?

Don't know what workshop you are referring to...however even after the install you can still run the compatibility checker.

And did you install the W7 drivers? (Look in Disc Manager - are there any yellow or red symbols?)

LOL - thanks Patio. Crazy hectic with work and trying to do two things at once. At least it wasn't work I screwed up (I hope :) ).
