?
On some systems that use graphics hardware acceleration
for video playback
This is often possible to disable the graphics hardware
acceleration. There
are two ways to disable graphics hardware acceleration:
1. Disable graphics hardware acceleration globally for all
applications using the Control Panel "System"
applet. Go to the "Performance" tab and click
the "Graphics" button under "Advanced settings...".
Set the "Hardware acceleration"
slider to None and hit OK. You may need to restart Windows
to have this change apply.
2. Disable graphics hardware acceleration for a particular
application. For example, in RealPlayer G2 select Options/Preferences
from the RealPlayer menu. Go to the "Performance"
tab and disable (uncheck) the "Use optimized
video display" setting. You may need to stop and restart
any movie being played to have the change take effect.
