If you already didn't know, but Nvidia's GeForce 6800 AGP series of Card's may have had almost all video acceleration in hardware disabled by an internal flaw. The only way to fix this flaw is with a new set of Drivers that should be released soon and a copy of DVD decoder that Nvidia charge 20 bucks for.
First check out TechReport for more Info on the flaw! Then you might want to sign up to the nvidia DVD decoder petiton to try and get the DVD decoder from nvidia for free for the owners of 6800 card's.

For instance, various pockets of the web have been abuzz about some video acceleration deficiencies of the NV40 GPU powering all GeForce 6800-series graphics cards for a few weeks now. This morning, we received mail for TR reader Henrik S. asking this:
