No player can read the 720p.hdtv.x264 files. it stutters and lag. the sound is great but images doesn't follow.
I tried: VLC/VMC, ZoomPlayer, Mediaplayer classic, all the vistashit stuff, CCCP, i've updated everything, I tried working it to use only 1 cpu and the other, can't find anything...
The files runs good on my desktop, even if it's less powerfull than the laptop...
any ideas ?

I'm running on a hp pavillon tx2524, 4gig, amd X2 1.9ghz and ATI radeon 3200hd.

Check cpu load. If it's 100%, it's cpu lag. Keep in mind that video card does not decode hd/x264. The newer ones provide acceleration and takes some load off, but decoding is still primarily cpu. It's decompression of compressed data, not graphics display.
