What kind of CPU load are you getting while playing the file? It's possible that the system is just too slow to play this format properly, as mplayer suggests. P3-500 is not that far beyond the days when MPEG-2 DVD playback was a stressful thing, so MPEG-4 might be too much.<br>
<br>
Also, it seems that without -framedrop option, mplayer won't drop frames if it gets behind in video rendering, so naturally the audio will get out of sync if it can't keep up.<div><div></div><div class="h5"></div>

I did a quick install of Windows XP on this same box just see if it's true, Media Player Classic with XP Codec Pack gave me good results, I could watch the video without problems, but there was something odd about this card, it seemed that it was slightly underclocked: GPU - 80Mhz, Memory - 60Mhz. Also I got the same flickering, slow scrolling on windows too, so 2D performance on this card is very bad. I will replace it with a 3dfx Voodoo 3 2000 AGP card.</div>
