It seems fine on 7068. Anything specific you'd like me to check tonite when I get home?

I have one of those MCE remotes with the IR control pod, perhaps I'll hook it up to see if it can control MPC-HC too...
I still have no support for my ICH7R chipset (Intel BadAxe II MB) or my LSI MegaRaid 8708ELP. So, back to more testing on VM's with limited functionality for me. Recent Vista drivers don't work for either.
I hope the RC/RTM are a different story.
Did you try extracting the actual drivers from the Intel package? I had to do that with build 7000 for my board.
The drivers from STOR_allXX_f6flpyXX_8.7.0.1007_PV unzipped using two different USB drives to run them, both promptly respond with "Contact your vendor for updated drivers". I also contacted Intel, and get the standard "It's in beta. We can't guarantee support.", after I tell them I'm trying to do compatibility testing to gauge my upgrade path.
What board?
Go get GSpot and run it on those AVI files, find out precisely what encoder was used to create them. That'll give you some clue about why you're having issues. I've yet to find anything that I couldn't play with WMP in Windows 7, all the builds I've tested, but I don't use WMP or Media Center for video playback, I use Media Player Classic - Home Cinema.

Not when really slow settings are being used.All that power and only 6.63 fps? Something looks amiss...
I'm having some trouble w/ 720p on my build 7068 netbook so its good to here you had better luck with 7077. Aside from that issue, its pretty snazzy and only ate up 500/2000 gigs of ram!
Will people stop thinking that less RAM usage = good?!
If you don't want to use your RAM, take them out of the frigging PC.
RAM > SWAP-file
People still cling to their notions from XP, of course.
Personally, I wish win7 utilized MORE of my ram, it only uses about 1.1 GB after start up. I've got 8 frickin gigs!

I don't see the problem here. This means my 1st day w/ W7's happy and ready for 3x the abuse it's currently receiving. Hell, I'd be even happier if it said, 500/4000! Now if I had been using it extensively for a few days w/ many programs opened and it had been pulling them from the HDD, I would be sad.Will people stop thinking that less RAM usage = good?!
