Re: Hardware acceleration

I think that when you have replaced your graphics card with a current
generation card from Nvidia or ATI that has at least 128MB of onboard memory
that your other problems will go away since the built into Vista decoder
will have a graphics card that it can use and then its audio decoder will
also be used.
