Hi all,
I'm having an occasional issue playing back dvds through media player (havent tried any other players).
Very occasionally (sometimes not at all, sometimes once per 2 hour movie, havent seens it twice in one movie yet) for about 5-10 seconds, the display will become partially covered with garbled green blocks that move around a bit. The movie keeps going and sound is unaffected.
Usually it just goes back to normal after a few seconds, but on one occasion it crashed the computer (I have changed GPU and PSU since then and it hasn't crashed since).
I have checked the temperature of the GPU during playback and it isn't unusually hot (45-50) degrees.
Any ideas on what causes this issue? I'm using the latest drivers for my HD5870 from ATI.
Thanks!
James
