AMD’s ATI Radeon™ Xpress series of chipsets are capable of
processing HDCP signals ("HDCP ready”). Some third parties manufacture
motherboards or notebooks containing ATI Radeon Xpress chipsets -- you can
inquire of them which models, if any, are HDCP ready. In addition, playing
HDCP content requires additional HDCP ready components, including but not
limited to an HDCP ready monitor, disc drive, multimedia application and
computer operating system.
