I wonder if some system files got corrupted during the upgrade to Win7. You could try running the System File Checker and repairing the files.
First open an elevated command window:
- Go to the Start menu
- Type "cmd"
- Right-click the icon and choose "Run as administrator"
Then run this command at the prompt:sfc /scannow
