#40 Very slow rendering on Duron 1300

I'm having rendering problems with all AVI files (DivX,
XviD, MJPEG, etc) in and FFDSHOW build.

This computer stats are:
Duron 1300
ABit KT7-A (A9 Bios)
40GB 7200RPM WD Caviar
256MB PC-133 RAM
All-In-Wonder Rage 128
Windows XP Professional SP1
Prefered FFDShow build: 04-24-03

I'm getting 100% CPU power with FFDShow, and very
crappy rendering. If I uninstall it, XviD takes over, and
displays flawlessly.

All the drivers are up-to date. It is very, very strange,
because I can get FFDShow at full framerate on an Intel
P-II 233 with only 70% CPU power. Can someone tell me
if I'm screwing something up?

Thanks.

    Do you have post-processing turned on? I find the CPU load
    monitoring doesn't work very well and have to turn off
    postprocessing for 640x480 or 640x360 videos to get smooth
    playback.

    No, I have no Post Processing enabled on the machine, nor
    my P-II.

    My P-II's stats are:
    Compaq Deskpro 6266
    P-II 233MHz MMX
    192MB PC-133 RAM
    40GB 7200RPM MAXTOR
    Voodoo3 2000
    Windows XP Pro SP1

    I can get FFDSHOW do display high-bitrate XviD files with
    power to spare on my P-II machine. On my Duron 1300, I
    can't even get it to display over 20FPS.
