Ah! Yes, you're using Photoshop CS right? I have both Photoshop 7 and CS, 
and the Epson RAW plugin only shows up in 7 and CS uses its own RAW 
converter. I much prefer Epson's one so I usually use Photoshop 7 for that. 
There must be a way to disable the Photoshop CS RAW converter for Epson. I 
bet you just need to drag something out of one of its folder or something. 
Try Google it or goto www.adobe.com for the help info. You should try 
another camera if possible to see whether it is your camera is misbehaving 
re: speed display. Mine is bright and visible and all that. I prefer the M7 
one, but that's just me.
