Playing HD content smoothly (with NVIDIA® PureVideo™ ???)
hi, i have the following specs...
Athlon 64 3200
2x512 Dual channel corsair twinX
4 HDD's - total capacity = 930GB
Geforce 6600GT 128MB DDR3, AGP
the problem is, im having trouble being able to play HD material smoothly. 720p or over just wont play smoothly!
this applies mainly for H.264, (off apple.com/trailers ...etc) but i kno mpeg2 and wmv have the same performance.
i thought my system would be powerful enough to play this kinda stuff, but evidently, not.
thing is, i saw something on the nVidia website called purevideo. it suggests my graphics card can use its own hardware to produce a smooth video output of hd material. it doesnt seem to be working though. i would like to know how i can get it to do it. how can i get my video card to hardware accelerate my HD material.
heres the links..

gfx cards compatability against codecs.
im running 93.71 forceware drivers
