Thanks for the tip. I was able to correct the problem with WMP10 by
unchecking YUV flipping. I could not find a similar control on RP.
Maybe if I paid for an upgraded version, it would have such a control,
but I see no need to do that.

In Windows Media Player 9, go into Options - Performance tab - Advanced
and uncheck "use video mixing render". Also, play around with the YUV
flipping, RGB flipping, etc. WMP10 and RealPlayer should have similar
options.

In short, there are several ways of rendering a video stream; some do not
work well with hardware acceleration or multi-monitor viewing.

I had the same problem, though a slightly different card, a vanilla 5700. I
fixed WMP 10, but real player, quicktime, DIVX, etc etc all looked crap. The
solution for me was to go back to the 71.xx drivers, they work perfectly.
The later drivers added nothing to the performance or functionality of my
card anyway.
