Thanks for the replay Sammie, This issue here is limited to the interaction between windows and the WDDM driver itself (which I understand is simply somewhat of a stub that reports 3D acceleration being available). For some reason on this hardware, WDDM works fine initially, but then fails within 30 seconds to 5 minutes locking the windows desktop and taking the mouse/keyboard for the host with it. Since Aeroglass starts and works fine initially, this looks like a bug in the "experimental" part of WDDM on this laptop. I was hoping others had had this experience on an HP i7 laptop with hardware acceleration and could point to a fix or workaround. -- David C.
