I see you are using a basic graphics theme in Vista. Could you try switching to an Aero graphics theme and see if this fixes the issue?

Default Hi

Hi,

when using HardwareOverlay Renderer Windows automatically deactivates Aero.
But Overlay Renderer is the best Renderer for Video. Aero is also using this Renderer, because of this Aeor is deactivated when a different program uses it. The 5.6 Version does not have any problems with this.
I try this weekend if the same problems occur when i have Aero activated, i dont had time yesterday.

best regards,

tom

Default Hi

It happens also when Aero is activated. Only 5.6 Driver Version is running without bluescreens and without video problems on other screens.

Default one more

When using a newer driver than 5.6 i always get bluescreens, also when the usb monitor is not connected, only driver is installed. very strange. Bluescreen appears not directly after installing or activating the device, but sometimes after some minutes, sometimes after some hours.

Can you talk me through exactly how you enable the HardwareOverlay Renderer so I can try and reproduce this and see what changed in v6.0 software?

Thanks

I use VLC all the time (latest v2.0.2) with the hardware overlay and have no issues. I think there were bugs in earlier versions of VLC that caused issues. Are you using the latest version of VLC?

My video setup is
