Some updates.
I had to 100% nuke it from orbit (after moving important stuff from the main drive), and wrote 0s to the drive. Repartitioned, formatted, and installed a 100% fresh copy of Windows.
I had a massive adventure getting the mouse to work at all. As it turned out, the Nahimic service that Asus motherboards install at go does incomplete installs. Once I went and got the Nahimic 3 services and installed them, literally everything stopped happening.

So...that's what caused it, as near as I can figure.
Here's the DXDIAG though, so we can maybe spot what's up, and provide resolution to anyone else who gets this issue.
