Go to the NVIDIA Control Panel. In 3D Settings, Adjust Image Settings.................., activate the "Use my preference..........." Adjust the slider up or down to see if playback improves.
Are you seeing the same thing when you play a video on the web, such as YouTube?
I don't have a NVIDIA card at the moment. I got rid of those cards. The showed light cords and were therefore crap.
at the moment I'm using a ATI card: ASUS AMD R5230-SL-2GD3-L
Streaming videos such a youtube looks even worse. more stuttering and also tearing
Light cords (whatever that is) would be the subject of a different thread but probably in the GeForce forum since the problem seems to be unrelated to Win 7.
You might want to first set a system restore point but-
Run msconfig.exe
In the Services tab, check the box for "hide all............" Then click on disable. Apply the change.
In the Startup tab, click on disable all. Apply the change.
Reboot.
Try some video.
Regardless of whether or not it helps, run msconfig.exe again and restore everything back to normal.
