    I have a question about software for my SLi 1 HDDVD drive. I remember a post made sometime last year about a program that was used for HDDVD playback. I have spent forever trying to find the thread with no luck... i was wondering if anyone has any ideas on what software will work with the newer Nvidia drivers. I am currently using the 185.68 from laptopvideo2go. I just got a new vizio 42 1080p TV and i couldnt seem to get the HDMI output to work with the original Toshiba drivers (hence the switch to the 185.68). The new Nvidia drivers work beautifully giving me a full 1080p resolution but now i get the "video is being used by another program" error when i use the Toshiba HDDVD player. i have also tried the trial version of powerDVD ultra but it says it doesnt recognize the disk when i put in an HDDVD. Any ideas on how to get this to work would be greatly appreciated!
