Will DVD run on 4MB video card?

I gotta a P2 400mhz, 32 RAM and a 4 MB video card, Will I be able to run DVD cd's on my mobo if I buy a DVD drive? Thanks in advance!

Possibly. If the card supports it. Otherwise, use a software program like WinDVD.

Well DVD's may run but your performace will be terrible if you try to use a software DVD player. You simply do not have the resources to do it.

You probably will need to pick up a hardware decoder card in order to see any type of smooth playback.
