VAIO Laptop: Goofy Screen

Installed 'Shifter on a brand-new Sony VAIO laptop.

Somewhere along the line Sage issued a dialog to the effect that it had found/fixed a display incompatibility problem.

But here's what I get when trying to view a program:

Anybody have some thoughts?

BTW, SlingBox renders a-ok.

Have you tried turning off 3D acceleration?

I can't find anything that looks like 3D accelleration.

Looked in the Intel "Graphics Properties" dialog, but no luck.

Found something called 3D | 3D Preference | Performance that had a little slider control that was sitting in the middle of the range.
I slid it all the way to the left for "Performance", no luck. Slid it all the way to the right ("Quality") and no luck either.

The text menus look fine. It's just the video that's wacked.

Bingo!

But it was the other way around: disabled by default.

I enabled it and the problem went away.

Disabled it and the problem returned.

Slam-Dunk...

Thanks!
