[QUOTE="ziphnor, post: 56915, member: 14215"] You should be more specific as to what kind of jerkiness it is, does the image tear, freeze or is it just that panning is jerky? Ghosting and streaking are different issues entirely. I would watch out for the following: [b]1. 50Hz -> 60Hz conversion[/b] If you run the display at 60Hz but the TV signal is PAL (720x576i at 50hz) you might experience some jerkyness. Try hitting Shift+! on the keyboard it will display information regarding framerates, dropped frames etc. [b]2. Higher resolution[/b] You new TV has a much higher resolution than the old CRT TV and is progressive. The computer has to upscale the video signal to the higher resolution as well as perform de-interlacing, which can be demanding. Check that the CPU load doesnt spike at any time while watching. [b]3. New Driver[/b] Have you tried reverting to the old driver? Its always a bad idea to change more than one setting/device at a time on a HTPC :) On a side note: I would recommend using DVI->HDMI, my HDTV at least black tones were rendered incorrectly using VGA, and the HDMI input was much better.
