    Hi,

    I seem to have a problem with my graphics on display and was wondering if anyone could direct to a solution. I have a powercolor 7870 radeon graphics card hooked up to a a smart tv which is less than 6 months old. It worked perfectly to begin with but since updating my drivers I have noticed that the onscreen diplay becomes pixlated on still programs or images, but does not occur when I watch videos or play games. I am sure it isn't the TV this problem does not occur when on other source setting. Please can anyone provide me assistance. Many Thanks,

    P.S. I have attatched a photo to help explain what I mean.

    Hi

    What Windows version and Service Pack are you using?

    What us the full model name and make of your PC if its an OEM one like (Dell, HP, ACER etc)?

    Can you rollback your driver to the last known good one and you can do this in Device Manager and the Display Adapter and then Driver and Roll Back Driver?

    This may give you back your previous good known driver and no graphic anomalies.. but if the anomalies still exist then look for magnetic interference close by.

    It could very well be the "updated" graphics driver you installed. See if you can roll back to the previous version and if that fixes the issue. Sometimes, "If it ain't broke, don't "fix" it" is the best policy.
