If Something Goes Wrong Fixing device-related problems 224 Before installing a new hardware or software component on your system, check for any potential conflicts between its resource requirements and your current system configuration. Also, if you change your Operating System, check with your PC manufacturer or your graphics card vendor to ensure that you have the appropriate drivers for both your hardware (for example, the graphics card) and software (drivers must support the Operating System and DVD with DVDExpress). Slow playback performance. DVD playback is a resource intensive application. Other applications and/or changes to your system hardware, software or configuration can impact playback performance. If playback is slower than normal, try: 1 Closing any other open applications to improve the performance of the DVD playback. 2 Ensuring DMA is turned on. (See Playback performance is poor. on page 222.) 3 If you have installed new hardware (such as a new graphics card or audio card), ensure the component's drivers support Microsoft DirectX® 5.2b or higher and DVDExpress. Contact the manufacturer of the component. 4 Verifying that your display driver resolution, color depth and refresh rate are optimal for DVD playback. (Some systems do not support video overlays if these parameters are not optimal.) Try lowering these settings to improve performance. Part II: Technical Reference
