Well my dev machine is back in business so I will try some stuff out after I'm able to recuperate from the stress of a the fate of a 1200$ computer being up in the air / the two or three hours it took me to put this labyrinthian little machine back to one piece.
The drivers I downloaded flicker sometimes in Aero mode. Same model MXM module but apparently they have hardware IDs or something so Windows invalidated the drivers. I'm lucky to have drivers I suppose since the vendor is not supporting 7, but whatever drivers I ended up with after the 7 upgrade did not suffer from the problem and seemed to be just as good as the ones available on nvidia.com. I will find out if games etc. flicker or not soon enough.
I placed an order for a Zotac Zbox about a week ago so I'd have a backup if things went bad / in the future but have not heard any word of its arrival. Also added some adapters which I think will let me pipe KF2 thru the PS3 hdmi->dvi->dvi gender changer->vga->hmd (head mounted display) so I might have to cut back on my Jaseiken Necromancer intake.
