Thank you!

According to this link, it supports GPU acceleration. So you should be good. Just see if you can give a little bit of more RAM to the GPU by going into the BIOS...assuming that option is allowed.

Just keep in mind that the current stable release doesn't support DxVA. So you'll have to get the nightly build located here.

Just remember to:

1) Get the latest build.

2) Turn on DxVA support by going into System > Video > Playback (I think) and turning on DxVA support. And then the you will start getting GPU acceleration. You see if it's working for sure, you can always hit the letter "O" on your keyboard and it will display the load results of your CPU, GPU, etc.

He's running Windows XP, which only supports DXVA, so he can't use the nightly build for video acceleration. He needs Vista or Windows 7, which supports DXVA2. The hardware is capable of DXVA2, though.

He can also use the DSPlayer branch.

My bad. I didn't see he was running XP.
