Hey guys, I just built a system with an HIS Radeon HD3850, everything works great except that if I go to a flash video site like youtube, I can't view videos in full screen I can hear sound but there is no picture in full screen just a blank background. This happens in Firefox and IE7. I'm currently using the 7.12 drivers but this problem was also present when I used the 7.11 drivers. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

BTW the rest of my system specs are:
Intel Core2Duo E6750 on a Gigabyte P35-DS3L (no overclock)
2 GB of Crucial Ram
and Vista business 32bit.

Same here, but I see a diagonal line split with gray and white colors when I use full screen in youtube, I hear sound, this issue is widely posted among a lot of users, and recent release (catalyst 8.2) did not fixed this issue.

My system specs:

GPU: Diamond HD 3870 512mb
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 (@ 2.4GHz)
Mobo: Asus P5K-E Wifi
Ram: 2x Corsair CM2X1024-6400 (that's 2Gb RAM DDR2 total)
PSU: OCZ 600W

I have the same problem with ALL the ATI HD cards. This ranges from HD 2400 through HD 3870. They all do the same thing.

In addition to split screen in YouTube's full screen mode, I also cannot wake up my computer from the sleep mode in Windows Vista Ultimate.

Have any of you guys had this second problem? I just want to know if this is just me.

Thanks.

Mobo: Asus P5KC
RAM: 2 GB
PSU: 550W
GPU: VisionTek HD2400 through HD 3870 with various RAM sizes.

This is my first HD card, about the second issue you mention, I run Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bits, I have no issues with the wake up.

Alright guys, it's an easy fix an you'll be kicking yourselves when I tell you what it is. All you have to do is right click on a flash video and go to settings and uncheck hardware acceleration.
