    Might be VLC; I have noticed a lot of little glitches in VLC. I would try a few different AVI files, and try them with both the latest version of VLC, and one a couple versions old...if they all make the screen fuzzy, it is probably your card.

    Lol I think this is kind of funny. Its a question if my video card is going bad OR if the program it self is going bad. Im pretty sure a video card is hardware.
