OK some stats: Running game with IE and Avast in background, with AA on and VSync off in Catalyst Control Centre: 600x480 and 800x600 both give 371fps just standing still at start. 1024x768 and 1280x1024 both give 335fps (which seems pretty good). Odd that both sets of modes should give same result. Maybe this gives a clue as to the card's architecture.
Loads a lot quicker on the PC, couple of secs, it wasn't that long on the laptop maybe 5, it's just that there was no visual signal and I think it's important for the user to see something. You could have a mini.exe that shows a splash screen whilst launching the main one, or have a non compressed.exe with data files but I guess you were trying to avoid this.
