i just setup a new testing server and installed drupal 4.7.6. drupal appears to be working normally except when i try to pull up the modules administration page, no page is loaded at all.

Have I missed a server configuration somewhere? I installed 4.6.11 in a subdirectory and it works perfectly...

Check your apache error log files when you get a blank screen error. Typically this points to an memory exhaustion occurence.

right on the money, PHP memory exhaustion. thanks for the help. php.ini shows an 8mb limit. is it normal for 4.6.7 to not be able to run on an 8mb limit or is something strange going on that i might need to look into?

how many modules were installed ? 4.7.6 default should run on 8MB but as as soon as you begin installing and enabling modules, 8MB can be quickly used up. Especially on that adminsiter/modules page.

no extra modules were installed, just a default install. download from drupal, decompress and upload to server...

i raised it to 32mb and everything works fine.

On my site, I keep that limit at 64 MB... it all depends on how many modules you have installed (I have about 100, which I know is kind of insane, but I "need" them). If you have no modules installed beyond the base install of drupal, 8 MB might be sufficient, but try bumping it up to 16 and see if the problem goes away.
