ENHANCEMENTS: 
 Adds silent install for SSM compliance.
Adds support for files created with Windows Media Player 9.
Supports rotated playback.
Localizes Italian translation for 'Fast Backward' onscreen display 
message.
Removes WinCinema Manager.

FIXES: 
Corrects an issue with WinDVD playback and the ATI Radeon 9700 graphics 
card. The user would play WinDVD and see no picture.  This was due to a new 
encryption method used by the ATI card.
Corrects an issue with WinDVD subtitle playback on NVidia NV-11 graphics 
card. At Higher video resolutions (e.g. 1280x1024, etc) subtitles would cause 
the video to fliker.
Corrects an issue with the WinDVD software crashing on systems with newer 
Intel P4 (Northwood C1 stepping) 2.5-G and 2.6-G processors.  This problem was 
due to the fact that the WinDVD software was improperly identifying newer Intel 
P4 processors based upon hardware register information that was changed by 
Intel.
Corrects the mouse cursor disappearing in full screen mode when the "Popup 
box to Choose" is enabled.
Corrects WinDVD not showing the number of times remaining to change region 
setting on DVD drive.

PREREQUISITES: 
DirectX 9 or later must be installed properly (unit rebooted after 
DirecX 9 installation) prior to installing WinDVD.
Must have a HP DVD drive properly installed prior to running WinDVD 
installation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: 
HOW TO USE:
 
Download the SoftPaq to a temporary, empty directory on your hard 
drive. The file downloaded is a self-extracting executable with a filename 
based on the SoftPaq Number above.

Run the downloaded SoftPaq EXE file to unpack program files. This will 
silent-install the WinDVD player software.  During installation, if prompted to 
overwrite any files, answer Yes to all to continue software install.

After a successful installation, the installation files and temporary 
directories may be deleted.
