Hi there!

I have a strange problem with my video playback. Since I installed a new Motherboard I keep getting flashing/tearing/blinking image (sometimes even with changing colors). This happens with all the Media players - KMPlayer, VLC, Windows Media Player and etc. The flashing is not horizontal, its vertical - like I don't know how to explain it:) 

The problem is only with video playback, not in games. I am running video games just fine - with no problems at all. Also it doesnt occur when I watch videos in youtube, vimeo and etc.


So, I am using: Windows 7 x64, GTX 460 GPU, E4500 Core 2 Duo CPU, Palit N73PV Motherboard.

All the components and cables are fine, they were running perfectly on my old Motherboard (ConRoe1333-GLAN).


Things I've tried:

- Reinstalled almost every known video driver for my GPU
- Enabling, disabling, forcing VSync in NVIDIA Control Panel (also forcing it in my video player)
- Enabling, disabling Aero
- Playing videos with Overlay, EVR, VMR, Halii rendeers
- Checking cables, unplugging components (such as memory sticks)
- Installed fresh copy of Windows 7
- Overclocked my CPU / loaded optimized defaults in my BIOS


By the way I have connected a secondary monitor - LCD TV but unplugging it won't do the trick.
Also I stress tested my GPU with Furmark, Heaven - it runs cool (maximum 50C on 100% load, 35-39 idle).


So thats it. If you guys know a solution to this, for me mysterious problem, it will be amazing!


Thanks in Advance!
