    Some videos will NOT play correctly. For example, if I go to the NHL website to watch hockey highlights, the previews play fine but when the actual highlights begin, the video looks like a kaleidoscope ... different colored vertical bands fill the screen. This happens will ALL the game highlights I've tried to view in the last several days.

    I've tried viewing highlights on MLB.com (Major League Baseball) and they show fine. I've also had trouble viewing some video clips on HBO's website. In particular, Bill Maher's show, Real Time. Clips will play with the same vertical multicolored bars.

    Bottom line ... why do most videos play fine but others will not?

    Thanks,
    Dave

    By the way ... this is a 17" Acer 7741Z-4433. I got it from Walmart 5 days ago.
