    is there anybody who own a HP dv6426us model? can you go to the link www.streamick.com

    when i try to play online streaming like the above one my video is not played back properly. it gets choppy. i mean frame comes 1 sec one after another as if it gets stuck. the audio playing is okay.

    it's not the problem of particular site as i tried to see from so many site but the same problem. i cant view online streaming.

    if anybody has this model and plz go to the above site and let me know if you face the same kind of problem. hope to get a reply from the owner.

    I used to have the problem on my desktop after I reformatted XP - I think its a driver issue.

    I had the same problem, and was so pi##ed! Especially when the videos played absolutely fine on my other comp running XP. I tried going through Device manager and checking for updates to driver for the display, and it reported I have the latest driver. I then went to Intel website and searched for latest drivers there. The version looked different, so downloaded and installed. And Voila! All videos run absolutely fine now! Hope this works for u too...
