    hmmm... Maybe there is an issue with your new mobo and the G400. Does your G400 have a "4" in the model code after the G4+? e.g., G4+M4DH32G, not G4+MDH32G? Maybe the G400 just plain doesn't work well with the newer CPU/mobo/DVD s/w combo. Tried any other DVD playback s/w? What's new in your system, just the CPU/mobo/RAM? Any high activity on aonther subsystem at the same time, like the NIC (though I'd think the system is more than fast enough)? Tried lower color depth/resoultion for DVD playback, like 800x600x16? If it can't do 800x600x16, something is most definitely wrong (stating the obvious).
    Model number on the car is : G4+MDH4A326

    The only new components are cpu/Mobo/PAM.
    Nothing else is active (even disabled com/parallel ports)
    Tried lower res - normally 1024x768x32 then tried the lower 800x16 and it still suffered the same problem

        No, the '4A' model does not need any modding.
