This was the solution for me too (or rather the problem anyway). Though it would be weird if the settings got changed at some point when you installed Windows 7. I had some trouble a while back with RAM that wasn't running at the rated speed and for some reason when I set it manually (i think I just lowered the timings but might have upped the frequency as well) it would freeze at the splash screen and I would have to manually clear the cmos to get it to start again.
