Please log in for more thread options Hi Curious,
I initially thought along the same lines so i have tried a 8500gt and it
didnt make a difference with the stutter, just worked better when watching TV
with the guide overlay. also if it was the graphics surely it would be there
100% of the time, not from time to time. the Mother board with on board
graphics is sold as a HD graphics mother board.
There is no stutter problem with xp media centre from where i borrowed the
8500gt card
I have also seen a PC with the Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H motherboard with
exactly the same symtoms as mine and this is supposed to do HD easily. the
only constant is that we are both using Vista Ultimate.
