    Asus V3800D

    I've got an Asus V3800D with a Chrontel 7003 chipset running on Windows XP SP1. I can't figure out how to get the old Asus drivers installed not just as drivers, but with the Asus extensions. That, and I've tried TVTool 6.5 and it doesn't disable the macrovision (PowerDVD continuously gives me errors when I try to run DVDs on it).

    I downloaded the Macrovision-free DLL driver, but such a file does not exist on my system (it's filename would indicate that it's for Windows 98...)

    I've followed the steps at http://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/nv...t.html#nomacro the best I can, but can't find Cinemaster 2000 anywhere, and I set the TV Out in my nvidia settings (using drivers 40.41).

    I looked at the nomacro.reg file, and compared it to my own registry, and my registry does not have the same keys. Will merging it actually solve this?

    I also searched my system for a v38ioctl.sys file, but also didn't find it at all. Should I just put it in anyways?

    Help!

    Yey!

    I annihilated the Macrovision bs on my Asus card. The key?

    DVD Idle

    It's a TSR that resides in the system tray and prevents the Macrovision from interfering. It also defeats Region encoding. I

    from their website:

    System Requirements:

    Windows XP, 2000, ME, 98, 98SE or Windows NT4.0 SP5+
    6X-speed DVD drive or above
    WinDVD 2000/3.0/4.0, PowerDVD 3.0/XP or CinePlayer 4.0
    Pentium II 500MHz or above with 64MB RAM
    1MB hard drive space for installation
    At least 300MB free hard drive space for Smart Read-ahead Cache

    I'll just say that my media box has the following specs and plays perfectly:

    Windows XP SP1
    16X DVD-ROM (IDE)
    PowerDVD XP
    PII-350 with 380MB RAM
    9GB SCSI
