    How much do Divx and mpeg 1 or 2 encoding compare to each other. Does one take more processing power than the other. I can succesfully convert dvd's to divx files but when i try to get those divx files from my hardive back to mpeg or mpeg 2 the computer crashes. Does mpeg conversion demand greater processing power???. I am running xp home, athlon 2200+,512 DDR RAM, 64 MB Ati Radeon 7000, 60 GB~30available.

    the computer crashes.
    This should not happen under any circumstances, either you have bad ram bad disk or its too hot. Or your software is borked. Buy you said whole computer crashed?
    And dont rule out virii.

    That makes about as much sence as ripping a CD into mp3s and then taking those mp3s and burn CDs with them.
