Hi
I just installed my new Nvidia TNT2 M64 graphic card. It seems to be working fine, but I noticed whenever I play an mpeg, avi or dvd . The picture flickers when the scene changes and I noticed a few horizontal lines on the video too. I quickly switched back to my old card and the problem went away. Anybody have any solution?
I'm running:
Windows xp SP 2
2x 256 PC2100 DDR RAM
amd ATHLON XP 2400+

dude, TNT2 M64 is everything except new and cool. Not even sure it can do HW overlay. Best get a cheap FX 5200.

i think i had the same problem when i'd install a geforce 2ti; what did i do....? oh right, i'd played postal2 for about 3 hours, downgraded back to an 8mb, and give the card to my neighbor

it's probably the configuration for the tnt2 card

Could be that you need to change your video drivers? Clean out the old first, google "Driver Cleaner" then install nVidia drivers, don't worry about getting New ones, something from 2-3 years ago should work best. Umm something like 43.45 or older should work fine.
