[QUOTE="SiLenTYL, post: 647935, member: 10288"] ok firstly....dont use onboard graphics! Get a 256MB (at least) or 512MB +(recommended) graphics card...it will improve your slow menu screens and deliver you a much better viewing experience for watching video The newest, cheapest card around at the moment is the Nvidia 220gt will suffice and very minimal cost..and give hardware acceleration for mpg2/h264/x264/xvid! As for setup: Audio codecs..go with MPC - MPA audio codec for video and my tv - its free and inbuilt into MP! (set it up in the config as u wish to use it) For video codecs use the inbuilt Win 7 codec ( MS DTV video decoder ) for mpeg2 and get CoreAVC 2.0 for h264/2x64 (u will need matroskasplitter - easily googleable [ha i invented a word!]) This will give hardware accelleration and no stutters..but u need a GRAPHICS CARD...not onboard...onboard is just plain silly!!!!
