Hi,

I hope this isn't a duplicate post, I tried the search but I am having a hard time trying to find my issue. Here it is:

I have a PC that I am using as an HDTV.

A64 3700 (s 754)
Lanparty UT 250gb
2GB RAM
XP Pro SP2
BFI 6800U (AGP)
Emermax 650W (+12v=36A,3.3=36A, 5=36A)

I have this connected to a Toshiba 32 LCD TV (32AV500U)via the VGA port using a DVI adaptor to my Video Card (I am going to try a DVI to HDMI cable - should get that early next week).

I used the codec guide from this site and I have added the latest FFD Show, xvid and divx.

All videos (WMV, AVI, MPEG, etc) play back perfectly using Media Player Classic or VLC. My issue is when I use full screen mode (on MPC or VLC) while playing an AVI file, I get random Rectangular blocks on the top-right corner of the screen (3x5 inches). These blocks look almost like a magnifying glass or as if you put a square filled with water and placed it in the top right corner. I don't think its the tv as regular tv and DVD look perfect.

My gut feeling tells me its the connection cable, but I am unsure. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post.
