I have been having problems for ages with the V550 on my second machine. When running any drivers newer than 1.91, video such as DVD or VCD will not play if VSync is disabled. Sound will be produced, but it is like the video window is not being updated. If I move the video window, a still image of the current frame will be displayed. If I keep moving it, you will see the video motion, but as soon as you stop moving it - it just stops on the last moving frame-sound still going though. I have tried all resolutions and bpp. My TNT2 (Creative) does not have this problem. Enabling VSync will instantly fix the problem. I can always go back to 1.88/91, or just enable VSync, but would rather fix this annoying glitch. It isn't life threatening, but I wondered if anyone else has had this problem, or has any ideas. BIOS changes have been tried, all drivers post 1.88 have been tried (that I know about). I am currently using the 3.34 drivers. Config is Celeron 366 128MB RAM Abit BH6 6GB HDD Diamond Viper 550 AWE64V PCI Many thanks for you time Frank REMOVE NO SPAM FROM REPLY
