1) Update drivers, Windows updates, DirectX Web installer (may be missing some parts), and latest version of Visual C++
2) Make sure under Power Management in Windows you're running in High Performance. Also set a high performance profile under Nvidia Control Center
3) Use the OpenGL backend on one of the latest dev builds, as it is faster than D3D. In the dev builds, there are some OpenGL 4.4 enhancements that speed it up like the Vertex Streaming Hack did. The current dev build is 4.0-804
Make sure you have the latest Nvidia Drivers, 332.21 or 334.67 beta

Cool. So I installed latest Visual c++ (the 2012 redistributable i believe), Direct X was already up to date, and I clean installed latest nvidia beta driver (I was running the latest WHQL before that). I also updated my Realtek HD Audio driver too. I rebooted between each and clean installed everything. All other drivers (Intel Chipset and such) are up to date already.
I'm not sure if this is related to the beta driver or not, but I'm getting a couple of error messages now when I try and load up any game (see attachments). I tried with the latest dev revision 4.0-804, and even the previous 4.0-800 which was loading successfully before the driver updates just to be sure, but both are giving the same errors on top of a black screen.
