WinXp SP3 Issues, PowerDVD 7.3

[HTPC2008]

My HTPC has been working flawlessly playing all video formats. I updated to Win32XP SP3 and now PowerDVD 7.3 3319a displays a slight video jitter on only Bluray playback. This can easily be seen on the warning notices and the like. I have the latest Nivida drivers (9600 GT) which is not the issue. It looks like Microsoft changed some files in SP3 that altered the PowerDVD optimization. I backed out the update to SP2 and all is good.

Anyone else see this problem?

Has the issue been addressed in later versions of PowerDVD?

Is there a fix?

TIA

No problems here with ATI 8.5 (released post-SP3) drivers. However, some other issues with SP3 (e.g. wireless drivers must be updated). Are the "latest" nVidia drivers that you are using post-SP3?

I'm sure there will be updates for quite a few drivers once all these SP3 bugs get worked out. PDVD will probably be the last if past is prologue
