Running windows 2003 server (converted to workstation) and latest updates. Abit Siluro FX5200 (passively cooled) with latest dets. Whenever I play a DVD, all I can see on screen is a white block, nothing else. Anyone know why this could be and what I can do to fix it ?
What software are you using for the DVDs...? - Could be any number of things I suppose.... Check that full hardware acceleration is selected in windows>performance options... - Also check that your DVD software has Hardware Acceleration enabled... Other than that, could be dodgy Mpeg2 codecs (or lack of one).....
I clocked down the processor from 2.8 GHz to 2.7 GHz (FSB from 156 to 150) and it went away. Everything works fine now. Time for a mobo upgrade me thinks.
