Hey, I've got onboard Video (ATi)
In the past few days I've noticed something new: I sometimes get little white lines or outlines on the black parts of certain images, and probably just .jpgs, though I'm not really sure yet. Like for example, it shows as several adjacent white pixels on my black avatar here, but it's only done that once a few days ago. I just was viewing some jpgs and it was doing it, and I came here and my avatar is not doing it.
My desktop image is mostly black and it doesn't have that problem, but it's a bmp.
It's not my image viewer, since I've seen it on web pages too.
I think I've seen this problem in the past and it went away, though I can't remember if it was when I had my Video card. That video card died and had really bad artifacts of red, green, and/or blue pixels or blotches that sometimes flickered. I can't remember if I had a problem with white appearing on blacks.
I also had some blacks on an avi that weren't true black, thought they were obviously supposed to be, but that might have just been a codec problem.
-help me figure what it is and out how to get rid of it?
-I think it could it be from the onboard video being too hot? Any other thoughts?
-could this be a monitor driver problem?
