video problem

guys i have got a strange problem here...
when playing any video .... if i scroll a webpage or open a picture using any picture applications the video goes all fuzzy and pink and green dots appear all over the video ... its something like matrix code but instead of symbols i get dots...
i know it sounds strange ... but the problem goes away only when i restart the pc ... first i thought there was something wrong with the video drivers but i have installed the latest drivers .. still i get the same problem.... any ideas?

 

IS there something wrong with your media file?? I mean the video file which you paly might be corrupted.. Or maybe that your media player needs a re-installation..

 

i guess there is something wrong in your video card.....
when did you last format our pc....?
format it and see if it goes or not... otherwise it's surely your video card problem... change it....quickly

 

Video card??...what about those who has an in-built video card..Like me*shy*...I've PIII 810e FST mother board that has in-built video card...?? What if i have the same problem??:-?

 

first thing to do is to update your codecs and not suspect anything else.

 

Yes CODECS might help..

 

got my codecs, i have a fresh win xp running, the media players are fresh installs as well, the problem is not with one video, it does the same thing with every video.
6string_addict, i think u r right, there is some prob with my video card, i'll see if i can get it changed.
THANKS: nik, rabi, 6thstring... u guys rock

 

THANKS SHAHRUKH...hope it will solve the problem.... :beer:

 

Have you overclocked your video card?? If yes, try lowering the frequencies.

 

^ooo ...tell me that in english plz!!! ..

 

i had told Saurabh to get codec packs.....he had some similar problem.... try searching for 'video problems' in search with Dr Saurabh as thread starter...u'll get there.

 

here ya go.....
codecs

try it on...

 

yeah btw if the codecs don't work then it could be the software or the drivers.

best thing to do would be to see if you can get a cheap AGP or PCI card from somewhere and plug it in and see what happens. If it works then its more than likely the card or drivers.

Also you could try installing a set of older version drivers rather than newer versions of that driver.

 

... i'll try installing the older drivers .. and will let ya know what happened... thnx erinidi and rabi

 

problem solved??

well try using vlc player its better n does not need codecs
