Not sure that this is the slightest bit of help, Dave, but I have noticed
some variability in the time 'lag' between changing from VRPC screen to
Win 7 screen on shutdown. It certainly isn't instantaneous.

Conversely, on VRPC startup from Win 7 I have had a 'seized' black screen,
once or twice I believe, that I reported some time back. Just had to get
rough with a reset boot from the power switch.

Graphics card/memory problem perhaps? Dunno? Just a wild guess!
