Just hooked up the flat screen 32 inch and the exact same thing happens, except it looks worse because it is bigger, so that means, it is not the monitor,it is not the lead,it is not digital versus analogue,I have tried it with one card ,and I have tried it with the cards crossfired and there is no difference,so this is bringing me back to the cards,or the resolutions as Anthony says or the drivers.
Ok I have changed the resolution to all the different ones available ,and played a different movie than I have in the picture in my first post ,and it is exactly the same,
so it doesn't look like it is the resolution,I have just played one of the movies on my old laptop which has an integrated card on it ,and it was perfect,so now I am really getting baffled as to why it would play on the old, and be so bad on the new and much better specs,I am determined to fix this now ,so any ideas from all would be great,and there will be rep as normal to all that help.
Hi Jim,
I'm still leaning towards it being a driver issue. If it was a pixellation issue, as was suggested by Anthony, then the defect would be noticeable over the whole image and not just in specific areas.
Are you using the 64-bit or 32-bit version of W7? Feedback and release notes also available at the links given below.

What's the screen res on your laptop? And are you using the exact same software/player settings as the desktop?
Sorry had to go out for a while.On the laptop, I just played the movie on Windows media player, in windows 7100,the res on the laptop is 1280 x800.
I uninstalled all my graphics drivers, and reinstalled the latest ATI 9.4 drivers,and it is still the same.
