FS115M poor video (dvd/divx) quality

I have a 2 weeks old FS115M, with nVidia GeForce Go 6200 128MB.

The problem: when I play DVDs or DivX the quality is extremly poor. Bright areas get blocky and blinks, the colors seem to be quantified, strips, pixel blocks, etc.

It's not a problem of codecs (even happens with DVDs!)
It's not a problem of the divx movies (seen perfect in another computers)
I don't think it's a problem of the screen, I guess it's the video card (drivers or something).
Drivers of the video card are updated.
Advanced configuration of the video card is good, I guess. I've tried different combinations with no results.

It also happens with high resolution images (8 megapixels) viewed in fullscreen. Plan surfaces appear pixelated.

Any solution/clue?

Thanks in advance.

The poor quality is normal because the picture is being stretched to fit the widescreen display.



this is not the problem, for sure, it only happens with colours... i guess it's something related to the videocard, not with stretching or zooming the screen.

i hope it's a question of dirvers, anyway i'll try to go to repair it in 3 or 4 weeks (at this time i need the pc for work).
