Do any of you know a solution to this?

I’m using a 5200FX with a 21” LCD.
When using the analog input, digital video such as MPEG works fine. When I switch to digital the video won’t display. (just a black window). Any ideas?

This happens with all forms of video including DVD.
Screen images and 3D are not affected.

Sounds like a driver problem, unfortunately.

You can only get digital video out of one device at a time, I believe you need to set the DVI connection as primary to switch digital video out to that connection. You should be able to do it in advanced display settings.

Your cranial vault will at some point fail. Whether your head will explode due to too much knowlege or overwhelming ego is still topic for debate.
