Most of my files (like 90%) for instance can't be accelerated.Honestly I'd say if you don't play alot of Bluray/HDVD stick to software codecs, it's alot less trouble and you can use postprocessing extensively. For your processor it should be a walk in the park to play those x264. If you think ffdshow uses too much cpu, you may also try coreavc, its quite a bit more resource friendly (and cheaper than a new gfx-card + power-dvd).</blockquote>
