Where is my weakness? (1 Viewer)

[strictlysocial]

I am having a few problems with Media Portal in that the TV can be a bit jerky on fast moving bits. Now my current setup is a Dell 8400, which comprises of

Intel P4 3.0Ghz
512MB RAM
ATI x300 graphics
Nova T 9002 digital tv card.
Raptor 74gb HDD + WD 120GB HDD (8 MB cache)

Now, I would have though the HDD, CPU, and RAN should be fine, but do either the graphics card or Nova look like weak points which may cause the jerkyness?

Thanks for your help.

Can you please try to describe in what way it is Jerky? Are you loosing frames? A common source of jerkyness is mismatched framrates and monitor update frequencys.
Are you in PAL or NTSC-county? Do you have a CRT/computer monitor/Projector/TFT/Plasma? What refresh rate are you using for your display?

Also check your DVB-T Signal strength? Ours used to do that because its split so many times that a booster fixed it completely.
