View Full Version : Internet Videos playing in "color chrome"?

About a month ago approximately 90% of the internet video I attempted to view
has become distorted? The only way I can describe it is as "color chrome."
I can see the basic shapes, and the sound is fine, it just looks like an acid
trip from the 70's. Please help I'm having WIMP withdrawls.

Does video you play from your hard drive display correctly?

Have you reinstall the latest drivers for your graphics card or onboard
graphics chipset from the manufacturer's website?

Have you run a disk cleanup recently? Run a defrag? Run a full antivirus
scan?

Thanks Cari

Reloaded ATI drivers, ran all clean up utilities and antivirus. Video
crystal clear now.
