runescape
I have played Runescape 3 many times before, but it seems that after this divination update, all I manage to get is a black screen with the interface. I can't actually see the live game, but I can see the live minimap.
Anyone else having this problem? And does anyone know how to fix it. I changed my graphics to the lowest settings, and nothing seemed to change.
Killing mature grotworms near Port Sarim will harvest about 1.7 Billion gp if you do it for 1 month. You make about 3m an hour! It commonly drops rune items and ores/seeds/armour/potions and the legendary royal dragonhide. It is the absolutly best way to make cash quick.
As the Sizzling Summer FAQ says,
How much XP is there for each month of the Sizzling Summer promotion?
Stay a member throughout August and you’ll get 350,000 XP to use. Stay a member throughout September as well, and you’ll get another 700,000 XP on top of that. That’s over 1 million XP in total.
Those two bonuses are combine to make the "Over 1 Million XP" reward that you refer to. The FAQ also says that this XP will be delivered by a promissory note:
When and where will I get the XP Promissory Note item?
It will be placed directly into your inventory at the end of each calendar month, unless your inventory is full. Then, you can collect it from Diango at your leisure.
So, the XP is a direct reward for membership, with almost no additional action required on the part of the user.

The black screen is a bug that was very common before RuneScape 3 (22 July 2013). However, after RS3 was released, the chance of receiving a black screen was very low. And if you did get one, it would go away after a few seconds.
However, after the Divination update, I, and some other players, have noticed that black screens are now more common when you log in.
There is a fantastic technical page on the RuneScape website which deals with black screens. You can read it here.
As you have told me you use Windows 7, try the following steps when you encounter a black screen:
Update/ reinstall Graphics Drivers
Clear Jagex cache
Reinstall Java
Reduce display settings
