Set DVD Decoder Priority?

I got a hold of nVidia's PureVideo Decoder for my Asus A8N-VM CSM. I'm trying to get my OS (XP MCE) to use that decoder... but doing a dvdupgrd /detect shows that I'm using Nero's DVD decoder. I read on nVidia's website that if we have other decoders installed, there's a priority as to which decoder to use. Anyone know how to make the nVidia's decoder the highest priority?
 
I actually found this on Microsoft's website. Running that tells me that the nVidia is the preferred decoder. But when running dvdupgrd /detect from a dos prompt, it's telling me I'm using a dvd decoder from nero... which one is right????

Click to expand...

The Nvidia DVD decoder has a system tray icon when the decoder is in use. If its not being used after switching with the XP utility you linked, the most probable causes are:
*Trial is expired
*Incorrect serial number used for the retail version.
