    The only real problems I've had are with video codecs. Divx kept generating an annoying COM error. Xvid worked fine, but when I tried burning files encoded with it to DVD using the Vista DVD maker, they had problems with the menus (the slideshow I put on my menu had odd green splotches). I finally fixed this by uninstalling all the third party codes and installing the latest version of ffdshow plus AC3filter. Now everything's fine.
