Ryoownt,

What do you mean by "independent" nVidia card?

This indicates issues with the driver.  The image you are seeing is a standard AVI used to perform video tests. How about playing it in media center outside of PC-Doctor or playing other AVIs?

I also notice you are running XP this is XP Pro 32bit correct? 64 bit is not supported.

What version nVidia Driver are you using? The latest on the Lenovo site is v6.14.11.7667

Hi fwilson ,
"independent" nVidia card that's mean Vidio card is MXM card not on board chip.
and my sysytem is using Windows XP Sp2 32Bit
nVidia drive version is v6.14.11.7695 << this is new version

BTW , i also can found this problem on PC-Doctor 6 .

my question is , this problem only happend on external monitor rotate .
i have ask nVidia Driver engineer , but they just explanation the root cause is rotate external monitor.

so far , i need to clarify this problem is application problem or driver problem.


thank you.

Ryoownt,

From what you describe it souns like it is the rotation app.  I believe this application is tied into the driver as well.
