nonzero 0 Posted July 29, 2000 People have said that installing PowerDVD under Windows 2000 severely inhibits game perforance. Is there any truth to these rumors. Share this post Link to post
Ronin 0 Posted July 29, 2000 What do you mean by severely inhibits game perforance??? I have been running Power DVD 2.5 for months and have not had any problems playing games. The software does not have anything to do with playing games. All it does is play your dvd movies. More info on where you heard that would be helpfull. Share this post Link to post

euankirkhope 0 Posted July 30, 2000 I'm pretty sure it will take up 0.000000000000000000000000000000001% of system memory when it's not running. This probably still gets right up speed-nerds noses. Or, perhaps someone found that when trying to play quake3 windowed, and watching a dvd with software decode, on a P90, it was just a bit slow. Could it have been someone in the gaming industry, under the impression that 2 hours of FMV intro would be a problem, as people would never get to the game? Just tell that person who told you that to stick his FU up his and go home. ------------------ System Spec: No CPU No Mobo 128Mb SSi PC100 STB Velocity 4400 16Mb AGP PAL TV-Out Hauppauge Wintv Model 406 Realtek 8029 LAN Creative ES1371 (PCI64v) 56.6K (AkA 44k) ISA Modem Creative 48mx CDROM Memorex TriMaxx200(DVD/CDR/CDRW, 6,4,24) (cracked 1.60 bios) Maxtor 91301U3 13Gb LS120 Share this post Link to post
