Hi all,
Thanks for the support. Unfortunately, nobody's help pointed me in
the right direction. There seems to be a lot of conflicting info
out there, along with a few dead end threads. I even saw a post
somewhere of "Do you have nForce chipset, a PVR x50 and the CD rom
as the master device on the secondary interface????" with no follow
up. (That is my exact setup, so what was up with that).
ANYHOW, I had to:
I DISABLED in setup:
USE HW XVMC MPEG DECODING
(which was on by default)
and finally everyting worked.
