cannot enable hardwear acc. in powerDVD

[bs71aw]

the new version of PowerDVD wont play with the hardwear acc. enabled (i have a nvidia geforce2) and without this it seams to have a great deal of trouble playing DVDs nice and smoothly? any ideas of how to solve this..

no idea concerning hardware acceleration, but what about your DMA settings?

is it enabled?

[bs71aw]

yeah that is enabled, but the playback seams so rubbish compared to before?

If you are using the latest Detonator driver (Particularly the 29.xx drivers, which has a bug with this), you can't use H. Acceleration without experiencing problems. Try applying the PowerDVD Patch, which might resolve the problem (It did for my GF2MX).
