video acceleration

[grok]

I'm seeing some graphic artifacts on my screen and someone suggested to me
that I should "Try turning down the windows video acceleration settings a
couple of ticks." Can someone tell me how I would do that?

======================================
If you reduce your Graphics Hardware Acceleration
as per the instructions in the following article and
realize an improvement, it's an indication that you
need to update your video driver:

Thanks, John. I did as you suggest but it didn't help.

==========================
I didn't suggest it, I simply provided
the instructions you requested.

Ok...so now you can explain exactly
what you mean when you say,
"graphic artifacts on my screen".

Hi
You can adjust the acceleration go to start >Control Panel >Double click on
the Display icon >Select the Settings tab and click on the Advance button.
The Advanced Settings dialog box appears. Adjust the Hardware acceleration
slide till you have the setting you want.
Hope this helps.
