Hmm. I guess you need a new mobo then.
You could save some dough and buy another mobo that'll take your PC2700 DDR module... I've seen Fry's advertising 200GB ATA100/133 HD for around $70-$90 after rebates (which I despise)...
My upgrade last year only cost me several hundred bucks: Athlon XP2600, 512MB PC3200, 160GB ATA100 HD, and the Pioneer 8X burner... And I upgraded gradually, waiting for each item to go on sale.

I still got a year warranty so Im gonna get it fixed or replaced but in the mean time I picked up the new DVR109 from Fry's. It's the Pioneer 16x DL burner. Burns like a freaking savage! And looks good too  |
Yow, 2000+ burns?? I think you just wore that baby out, Elt.
You should get a job at Pioneer testing burners.

Make any decisions, PCM?
Just curious.

Yeah, it's possible: a video is just a large compilation of individual frames... Problem is, if you resize it in an odd way, you might not be able to watch it on a regular TV.

Could you give me some more details as to what you're trying to do?
Are you trying to reduce the video size to shrink the file size? How large is the video? Is this for TV viewing or internet use?
