Caveats on this unsupported modification and its origin on forums were discussed here in May in Preference mod widens CS5 CUDA acceleration. The new article above details additional tests with a wider range of Nvidia graphics cards and notes that power requirements may change with new cards. Having inexpensive hardware acceleration for a few layers with effects on DSLR footage has made some users pretty happy; conversation on the mod continues at the Adobe forums.
Update: there are some instructions for the same on the Mac at Insanely Mac in How To Cuda / Mercury Engine on Premiere CS5 / Snow Leopard [ lower end graphic cards ].

DISCOVERY: Watching Resource Monitor in Windows 7 I discovered that the OS is 'parking' CPU cores intermittently & not using the full-meal deal. The HotFix is posted exclusively for Server 2008 R2 but installs properly in Win7 x64 (shared kernel). Makes a mountain of difference when the system is actually using all cores. There is also a registry change that I've applied. Suggest all you other editors look into this. Watch the CPU load in Resource Monitor when you're do intensive operations.
