On my dell laptop inspiron 5000, running W2KP, when viewing a dvd or other source, only half the screen (upper half) shows, with the bottom half displaying vertical lines. any ideas will be appreciated. thanks.

i bet if you hook up an external monitor you will see it displayed that way there also. you saying that normal windows is viewed ok, just a movie displays oddly? it sounds like a video card or driver to me but only guessing without more info. maybe some memory on your video card went bad...
