Is there any way you can find out whether the ATI 7500 that you have is a POWERED BY ATI or a MADE BY ATI video card? There is a vast difference in performance. If it is a POWERED BY ATI you could be experiencing video card problems.

The POWERED BY ATI cards are made by various manufacturers who pay ATI to use some of their Patented systems. They are generally priced lower than ATI made cards and perform accordingly.

Not saying for certain that's it, but it is a distinct possibility in a production line pc.

When not using a remote monitor or TV, after you double click and minimize the remote screen, you should be able to click and drag it off to the right out of the way, the same as if you did have a dual display hook up.

Wouldn't hurt to go to Microsofts site and download all the latest service packs for your os. Before going there, determine which version of Direct X you have installed and if not 9.0, download it also.

Gonna let my ignorance show up here. What do you mean by "QC a disc" in the playlist ?

Hope this helps,

George
