Jerking video using Winfast Expert card.

Hi, I purchased a Winfast 2000 XP Expert TV capture card to use with my Pentium 4 running an Intel P4 1.7G CPU and 512 memory, twin 120G 7200rpm hard drives and Windows XP.
When capturing PAL DVD using the Winfast V3.4 software plus all the required codec's installed I get jerking action on the video (very fast stop/start action) even with all other programs turned off via MSCONFIG and using a separate 7200rpm hard drive to capture the video files.
After weeks of testing it appears that my 1.7G CPU is exceeding 100% when capturing full PAL DVD with the Winfast V3.4 software.
I have found that the only way I can capture full PAL DVD using the Winfast Expert card is to use Ulead's MovieFactory V2.5 and close down all other programs running in the background through MSCONFIG which then allows my 1.7G CPU to run between 89% and 93% with the odd peak around 98% when capturing fast video action.
The captured video using this setup is perfect and no jerking shows up, so as long as I keep the CPU running under 99% all appears to run ok but only with MovieFactory V2.5 and not with the Winfast V3.4 software that came with the Winfast 2000 XP Expert card.
I have tried the latest Winfast software but the jerking became a lot worse meaning my CPU was way in excess of 100% loaded with this latest version.
Does anyone know how I can lower the loading on my CPU even further ????

Are you able to capture in a lower resolution? I have a 1.2ghz pro. and I capture in mp1 and mp2 at lower resolutions just fine. See if you have an option to lower the resolution display. I think it will lower the uasge of the cpu. Although I'm not an expert yet.
