Solve : Video Playback On Laptop?

Answer»

Hey. I am having video playback problems on My Acer Aspire 7741z-4433 Laptop. Here are some pictures below to show what I am TALKING about. This only happens when I'm trying to watch certain videos. not all the time. I am on Windows 7 operating system



How are you accessing the videos? DVD/online/? What type of internet CONNECTION and speed are you getting if the videos are from online?Is this a recent phenomenon with these videos or has it always been so?truenorthVideo CHIP is failing...was this thing dropped recently ? ?I noticed that the cursor is not affected by the rest of the mangled video... so its more likely to be a corrupt video FILE issue...I don't see a cursor in either pic...
It looks like an issue with the keyframing in the video to me. Especially if you can cause this by seeking through the video.Quote from: truenorth on September 19, 2011, 08:23:14 AM

No the laptop hasn't been dropped. and these are just videos from like youtube and espn.com! and i am using my college's internet. it's slow at times, but the laptop has being doing this for a while now with certain videos. no matter what type of net connection i useUntil an alternative explanation arises to my mind you are experiencing a failing video card or inadequate ram to keep up with the video data transfer.Given that other videos (i assume also dvd disc videos) are not affected that tends to my mind to lessen the likelihood of it being the video card.Do you know how MUCH ram is supposed to be in the laptop and what a Crucial test actually shows as present.truenorth
