M9700 Vista assistance needed

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a problem I am having with my m9700 and Vista. I have everything installed but when the graphics card was installed it came up with an error saying no adi codec. Nothing seemed to be going wrong at first but when it was done restarting I tried to run the windows experience index and it failed at the very end. I opened the winsat log to see what the cause was and its reporting that its not detecting a direct x 9 capable graphics card. When I first made this attempt I was running the Alienware SLI capable drivers for vista and I tried to run the test both with sli on and off to no avail. I then went to laptopvideo2go and tried the newest stable Vista drivers and those failed with the same reason in the log as well. If anyone has any idea how to remedy this situation and what the no adi codec error meant I would greatly appreciate the help. I'm also going to post my winsat log below just incase I am reading it wrong and the error is actually something other than the graphics card. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help!

Yeah I have two 7900 GS in my laptop. I tried that method and that still didn't work, thanks though. Any other thoughts?

Again sadly I have tried that as well....4 times. Also of note before I installed Vista the first time I flashed my bios to the newest version, I beleive it was 3.18. I have no tried both graphics drivers from Alienware as well as the 6 most recent drivers from laptopvideo2go and I was met by failure from all of them.

Ok so I tried the testing my directx to make sure all was well. Everything came back normal but regardless I decided to go download directx 9 and install it. Still failed, so then I tried uninstalling the graphics drivers and then installing directx 9 and then reinstalling the graphics drivers...still failed. So in my last ditch effort I formated the HDDs and started from scratch with a fresh install of Vista, this time I used my friends Vista Ultimate disc just incase something was wrong with mine. I then installed DX9 and the graphics drivers and tried performance index again....still failed with the same output log. So yeah I think I just wasn't meant to run Vista.
