    IIRC Vantage requires a minimum of 1280x1024. If you have an external monitor plug that in.

    Have only your laptop's LCD screen connected and go to Display Settings -> Advanced Settings... -> Monitor -> and uncheck 'Hide modes that this monitor cannot display'.

    Hmm.. Perhaps the benchmark doesn't run properly when the resolution is being deceived.
