Everytime i view a cinematic movie from a game or a Bink Video movie or something of that sort i get green dots to appear on my screen. This doesn't happen when i watch movies in quicktime, Windows Media player, play games or anything else. Is there a problem with some configurations of mine such as my Radeon 9800 pro video card driver configurations. I don't think its that serious but it gets somewhat annoying. If anyone can help me please do! Thanks
