VMS12 Queries

Hi all, just upgraded to MS12 Suite from VMS HD Platium 11 Production Suite. I need to get used to the new features but two points I note right away.
Firstly, I have an ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphics card in my W7 64 bit Quad core, i7 950 computer. In Options, Preferences, Video Tab against GPU acceleration of video processing, this is not listed but Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (Juniper) is listed. Can anyone explain what this means?
Secondly I have the NewBlue FX plugins that came with the MS12 Suite, but some of those with VMS11 have disappeard; for example NewBlue MSPPS Image Mapper that I use quite a lot. Can I use these missing plugins in MS12 and if so how can I get them to show up? I still have the boxed VMS11 version with the discs.

Thanks in advance.

Can't answer your GPU question, but you can have both version 11 and 12 on your machine at the same time. That will be the easiest way to determine if your older plugins still work in 12.

Thanks for the replies. I will do some further investigation but any other comments are welcome.

You'll most likely need to install the 32-bit version of VMS12 to get access to those effects:
