So my suspicions were correct.
Like most other forums, most people here seem to refuse that Nvidia drivers cause issues.
Behind all the "ATI DRIVERS SUCK" threads are people whom are in denial about Nvidia's equally dodgy drivers.

So if and when i sort out the power saving mode problem my computer still hangs on the windows logo whilst connected to the PCI-E GPU, does that mean my GPU needs replacing?

Congratulations moving to Windows 7
The issue seems to be driver or a physical video card related issue. The 9600GT is well over 4 year sold so it could be naturally degrading. If you game it's time to replace it soon regardless.
ps. also make sure you are installing the latest drivers. v301.42. Tue May 22, 2012.
