There are no separate files for DXVA in the driver, apparently it is embedded in the driver itself. AV1 and h266 require a much more powerful processor to playback, but usually, if Win XP is installed, the processor on such a computer is quite weak. And AV1, h266, VVC, they are all designed for streaming video, they have much less fine-tuning than h264 and h265, they blur the video more, there is more loss in dynamic scenes, and the main thing is that it takes many times longer to encode video. I meant hardware acceleration, h265 is of course played using the CPU, so are all the new video formats. Decoders and encoders work like this, they use the most supported instructions from the set of possible instructions, it's just that for newer codecs, the minimum may be SSE4.

I don't have a certain answer either. What's certain is only that you can't use the enterprise policy because it works from Chrome 110. P.S. Although it is OT consider that in Edge the enterprise policy works starting with version 123. So I assume that there is a mismatch between Chrome users who might be affected by the MV3 change before Edge users.

<<< System Information >>> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ System Model MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD MS-6391 Processor Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz Physical Memory 1.5 GB Graphic NVIDIA GeForce 6200 Video Memory 256 MB Operating System Microsoft Windows XP (5.1.2600) 32-bit Application PCMark05 <<< Result >>> The value 1.5 GB was edited by me. Due to my nature, I hate wrong values. I am like a rock in the surf (German saying). BTW, from a statistical point of view, the sample size is too small for any meaningful conclusions.

I also have an internal 4MB video card for the Inspiron 7500. My Inspiron 8000, the successor model to the Inspiron 7500, has a 32MB video card, but if I remember right it doesn't fit physically into the Inspiron 7500 and, if it did, it might damage the DC-DC board in the Inspiron 7500 because of the higher power consumption. The Inspiron 7500 is my favorite oldtimer laptop, it works with three internal HDDs/SSDs, which do use already a lot of current. The DC-DC board is the 2nd most fragile part in the Inspiron 7500, after the cracking hinges and the cracking plastic.

But if we are keeping track, that's one "for" 'all necessary updates' and two "against". I can think of at least two that were "ran off the forum" that were intentionally sticking with XP x86 SP2 and were both deadset "against" the 'necessary' SP3.

So far I get the following: 1. Windows shows a wrong architecture message for msports 2. SFC says msports doesn't match crc with the file in winsxs 3. SFC says the msports in the datastore is corrupted You have x64 in your forum profile, is that also the type you are using here? If the OS is 64bit and uses a 64bit process, it may show a message like #1 if it tries to use a 32bit binary or vice versa. The file it tries to use may be actually fine. I'd validate the file by opening it in some sort of program that can read headers or a decompiler. Typically opening a binary in a program designed to read binaries will fail immediately if the file is actually corrupt. Make sure the environment variables for the OS are not modified. Basically, this could all be true IF Windows is trying to use the wrong msports, if there are actually 2 versions, one in System32 and one in Syswow64.

Not very trustworthy as the integrated version is very old. I believe it is version 3.21. This SystemInfo Explorer version was not able to indicate the correct memory size in my system. It says 2 GB instead of the correct value of 1.5 GB. BTW, the last Windows XP compatible version is 4.48.
