The system requirements for CyberLink PowerDVD vary depending on the operating system installed on your machine (Windows 7, Vista or XP). Please consult the system requirements below that match your version of Windows.

CyberLink PowerDVD optimizes performance by selecting the appropriate video de-interlacing algorithm for the available processing power. CyberLink PowerDVD maintains its support for processors below 1.6 GHz by ensuring that TrueTheater Lighting technology will be turned off by default. CyberLink PowerDVD's advanced audio and video technologies function better when used with processors above 2.4 GHz.
