User(s) can reproduce this bug
this scenario happens to me:
I have two computers, one work computer with Server 2008, and one home computer with Windows 7 RTM. The home computer is permanently running with two users logged and the computer screen is usually locked when nobody is working with computer.
1. I connect with mesh remote desktop from work computer to home computer.
2. Then I end remote desktop session and disconnect.
3. After this, when on the home computer (with windows 7) user locally uses "swich user" the screen is black only mouse pointer is visible. Only solution is to restart the home computer.

I think this error happens only after using live mesh remote destop.

This also happens to me using standard remote desktop. I connect remotely, and get a black screen. If I go to the machine, I see the switch user screen, but if I log in locally I get the black screen and there's no recourse but a hard reset.
