According to the PDF, the 6600GT has PureVideo H.264 decode capability. So
it's just a matter of using recent drivers (latest is 181.22 for XP,
supports 6600GT).

nVidia doesn't produce the playback software, though. Instead it had
licensed the PureVideo API to Cyberlink and Intervideo. The premium versions
of PowerDVD or WinDVD have built-in support for PureVideo acceleration and
will use your 6600GT GPU for H.264 decoding assist.

You may, however, find PureVideo-assisted H.264 playback through those
bloated commercial apps to be no better than an optimized software decoder
like CoreAVC, which can be downloaded free from many places.

Hello,
is there any hope that NVIDIA will release drivers for old cards, such as
my NIVIDA AGP GeForce 6600 GT, drivers that can allow these old cards(even
if they don't have PureVideo) to use their GPU power to help the CPU for
high definition h264 mpeg4 avc videos ?
That would be great :-)
