      I get a temporary black screen while opera is starting up. This has only recently happening possibly since the mountain wallpaper was scrapped followed by newer updates.
      Windows 7.

            Is your graphic card driver up to date? If yes then try disabling hardware acceleration.

                I disabled transparency, made no difference. Chrome starts off with a white screen Opera starts off with a black screen. I don't think it can be changed it's Opera thing.
