I cannot reproduce that here. I get consistent results from both command

a verify pass on the linear calibration when it's not loaded. I followed
the steps as described above. I've tried both with and without Aero.
Sounds like either updates to Vista have changed things, or it's
a property of the video card drivers.
Have you had a look in the Event Viewer? Vista's is significantly
improved, and often contains useful information. I was shocked when it
actually helped me track down a suspend/resume issue related to
Bluetooth. It'll report things like restarting failed drivers in the
event log.
There are some related events, but they don't say anything useful.
There's "A request to disable the Desktop Window Manager was made by
process (dispwin.exe)"
and "The Desktop Window Manager was unable to start because a composited
theme is not in use"
There's no indication of the win32 function call that actually triggers this,
and their "help" on these events leads nowhere.
