video issues

[chronokefka]

Well, something broke on my computer today. Not sure if it was my X700 or a collection of drivers. Video playback won't work at full acceleration anymore. I have to scale it back to 3 ticks from the left to get any playback at all, and even then some files are still messed up: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v457/chronokefka/playbackissue.jpg
So, how would I go about fixing it completely? Thanks in advance for any help.

Original attempts at finding the issue involved uninstalling and reinstalling codecs, The Core Media Player and DX9. I can get video playback of most files in VLC, WMP and MPC as well, but once again some files have the double-image still.

Does Windows Media Player work?

All my video players work partially with some tweaking and disabling of video accelleration...but I still get the video problems in the screenshot in WMP too. If I could get these files to play properly in any player I'd be happy enough, but the video screws up no matter what I try.

well pray it was the video card, I know this sounds a bit obvious but it is 1 of 2 things, the drivers got affected or the card decided to commit suicide on you. The reason I say pray its not, because most video card companies have a machine that they can plug your video card into and tell what the last clock speed was. so first try reinstalling the drivers and codecs and what not

It's an HIS, which I had OC'd to speeds covered under the warranty. My proc was running at 2.7 for a few weeks, which may have led to codec/driver corruption. Or it might be residual traces of the virus that pwned my system a month ago.

I purged the ATi drivers and installed the latest package...which has now messed up something else, but I'll figure out how to deal with that later. I also removed all the codecs I could manage short of a huge registry dive to get them all and reinstalled. Nothing has worked so far.

yeah I have experienced that ati 6.2 driver screwed my pc up once

 

[chronokefka]

I was running 6.1 when the problem started...now I'm running 6.4...which I hope isn't as bad as 6.3.
I'm suprised no one noticed/mentioned the messed up IP address I have, as that's the other problem that the 6.4 drivers caused. The stupid things installed the MS TV/Video Connection in my Network Connections.

I havent had a problem with the 6.3 drivers but I am running MCE at the moment so maybe they are slightly different

Anyone got any ideas? It started working again for a few hours...then back to this ugly ****** again.
