Do you have any other problems with "graphics" on your PC?

Have you considered getting an update for your display card drivers? What is your graphics card make and model?

Do you have any codecs or codecpacks installed beside the standard codecs?
And how long do you have this prob? Did it start when you put in the new vga card?
