Doh....yes, it should check that. My bad.

I'll hold off a day or two on the next patch so I'm not spamming the list in case there is other feedback, and do a fix for that. 
I don't want the driver to error out on this - but it shouldn't check (and potentially enable) the feature if that register read fails. I will go and double check on some older platforms too as a sanity check.

Thanks for the review.
