I recently bought Q8400 core 2 quad processor, DG41RQ motherboard. I have 1 GB NVIDIA GE FORCE 9400GT installed with 3 GB of RAM(DDRII). Problem is my system is not playing videos properly, there are lots of blurring and disturbances. I have not tried games yet. Is there some compatibility issue? Or this motherboard is not too good for playing high quality videos? Copy-pasting too is taking lot of time.. Please help me.

Basically you have a low-end motherboard but that does not mean you should be experiencing those types of issues.

Have you updated the bios to the most recent?

Have you updated the video card drivers lately?

Was the board purchased seperately or did it come with a DELL, HP etc????

Once you are done with the updates I would back up your files and do a fresh Windows install. After that you should be fine.

What are your system temps? Could be CPU overheating, resulting in CPU throttling.

The link is working fine. If it does not work just go to nvidia.com and look for your drivers. Do you have CPU-Z? If not download it so we can see your settings, just to make sure everything is correct.

I doubt this is a driver issue but just to be on the safe side it is good to have the correct drivers.
