Graphics, Power, Driver Issue

[lincoln101]

1.) Video will no longer play regardless whether Vlc, Smplayer or Windows media player used.

2.) Pixalation began a month ago and I attempted to update the AMD Radeon driver.

3.) Screen now refreshes every minute closing some Windows files I have open.

Download and run

System Update Readiness Tool for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB947821) [October 2014]

From an elevated command prompt, launch (Windows installation cd could be necessary):

sfc /scannow

Wait till it finishes (15-50 minutes).

If the final result is equal to Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations or equal to Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them. Details are included in the CBS.Log %WinDir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log, launch this command:

copy %SYSTEMROOT%\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log "%userprofile%\desktop\CheckSUR.txt"

After it, you should find checkSUR.txt on your desktop: post it here.

Instead if the final result of the SFC TOOL is equal to Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. Details are included in the CBS.Log %WinDir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log, launch both the previous command in the code above AND also this command:

copy %SYSTEMROOT%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\desktop\cbs.txt" && findstr /c:"[SR]" "%userprofile%\desktop\cbs.txt" > "%userprofile%\desktop\SR.txt"

After those two commands, you should find three files on your desktop: checkSUR.txt, cbs.txt and SR.txt: post here the checkSUR.txt and the sr.txt.

If the last command won't work, try these (one by one):

copy %SYSTEMROOT%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\desktop\cbs.txt"
findstr /c:"[SR]" "%userprofile%\desktop\cbs.txt" > "%userprofile%\desktop\SR.txt"
