when I am playing videos or movies, these lines show up. The funny thing is when the window is on minimum there are no lines, BUT when I maximum it these lines show up. The lines goes from up and down and side to sides.... :( :eek: :confused:
 
What videos are you playing? DVDs, AVIs? Something you downloaded? Do you know what codec the movie requires to play properly, does it happen with all videos?

Sounds like a codec problem to me. I had a problem a year ago where someone sent me a movie, and it would not play properly if it was not left at its original size, it would be interlaced and upside down if stretched. But now i use FFDshow as my codec pack, grabbing the extra ones as needed, and ive not had any problems.

Could possibly be video drivers, but its not too likely i wouldnt think.

If you are overclocking, it could be 'checkerboarding' and that would be either a heat related issue, or an issue with overclocking/unlocking your graphics card.

If they are little grey wavey lines. Turn off fast writes if you have them enabled. If they are not, then ignore my post :D
 
Mine did that two until I got the newest drivers from Guru3d, if you have a 6800.
 
i figured it out now... it is the new forceware driver from nvidia.. ew.. messed up my computer.. i have went back to my old driver... but the old driver... doesn't display farcry... it is just black and white.. weird.. :confused:

Do you have the latest farcry patch? Go grab the 1.3 patch if you don't. I'm pretty sure unpatched farcry is all messed up on geforce 6 series cards.
 
but the thing is on geforce 6800 oc was fine with farcry.

now I have geforce 6800 gt... =\
