Additional Notes
This win2k driver comes from IBM's site and is THE BEST I have tried as the other drivers here have the problem that displaying video in 24bit colour at any resolution causes strange vertical lines :(
Cons:
- Driver doesn't contain gamma tab (no loss, you'd never want to alter it honestly)
Pros:
- Works as well as the default XP driver with the added bonus that TVout support is included (you must be in 16bit colour mode)
- Videos no bigger than 352x240 will run accelerated in 1024x768x24bit colour :)
- You have SOME CHOICE with how you watch DVD's (these are best)
1. 1024x768x16bit colour
2. 800x600x24bit c
