Reply: (edit)Check the properties of the clip you are playing. They're not all designed to be played in full screen mode. Most, in fact, are designed to be little windows, and when you blow them up, that's what you get: choppy with distorted lines and unclear views. Reloading the OS won't help. Don't maximise the window, and see what it looks like. Cheers!

Reply: (edit)I would go in the options and click on the tab performance. Then slide the video performance sliders up to the highest setting. Also check fullscreen mode switch.

Reply: (edit)Almost forgot, re-install Direct-X. different video cards require different rivers. That may help, too. Chase
