Sometimes when I try to play a video file it goes all blue/black and distorted, You can't make the video out at all but sound is fine.

Happens for all players, WMP, VLC and I tried Nero Showtime, Same result with each video I try on whichever player.

I can't provide screenshot as it doesn't seem to capture it properly, Once I save the the picture. Which is a bit weird as it's fine I paste it into Paint to save it.

I have K-Lite codec pack installed, But doesn't do this all the time, If I restart PC it's fine but still annoying when it happens, Wondering if anyone else had similar issues and if it's something fixable.

My graphics card is a 8800GTX, Using 162.18 drivers, It has done this before on previous drivers aswell though.

Any help appreciated, I am puzzled by it :confused:, Thanks.
 
Thanks, Il try that codec pack out.

It did it again but restarted and seems fine, But im waiting for it :(.

Doesn't VLC use it's own codecs? Could it be a graphics card problem?
