Part of screen lags when playing xbox 360

I recently bought a new 42" LCD 120 hz 1080p Insignia TV from Best Buy and a 4" Rocketfish HDMI Cable to hook my xbox 360 up to it and get a clear picture.
The picture is great but recently I noticed that at the bottom left hand side of the screen there is a lag between the rest of the tv. It takes up probably 1/10th of the picture and it really doesn't effect the game that much but it is very annoying and has been happening more and more frequently.
Any help would be very much appreciated! Is it the HDMI cable, The Insignia TV, or the Xbox 360.
P.S. I use the cable box through the hd components and that does not ever have the lag problem on the corner of the screen

Just how recent is "recently bought"? If it's less than a year, you've got options.

  • Parts of screen missing when played on Internet Explorer

    Has anyone ever had a published CP5 project not display the whole screen when presented in Internet Explorer?  A coworker brings up a course in IE and the playbar and the right side of the screen are missing.  I bring up the same course from the same source on a different computer and all the elements are there.
    I have no idea how to explain it.  The monitors are the same resolution and the size of the project isn't big enough to go off screen.

    If everything else is the same, IE has that zoom option.  I use the shift-mouse wheel, not sure if you can do it with the keyboard or touch pad, but rolling up zooms in, rolling down zooms out.  Perhaps that's it?

  • Playing Xbox 360 through a MBP ... picture included

    Hey, so I've been digging around trying to figure out a way to play my xbox360 through my MBP. I'm in college, so its really nice having a mobile screen, compared to having to lug around a computer monitor or t.v.
    Apparently, the most common problem with most devices is that they give some sort of "lag" when playing the game. However, one guy said his layout worked fine, and he provided a picture. Naturally, he didn't specify the details of his setup. Here's the picture he provided though, if that helps anyone.

    Do a search on google, there seems to be a fair amount of stuff which will help you.
    I found this article which explains how to hook up a 360 to a mac mini, but the procedure should be pretty much the same for a MBP.

  • Computer lags when playing games.

    Hi folks.
    I have a problem with my computer, several in fact.
    1. Computer lags when playing games(Battlefield/Desert Combat) even on lowest video settings, especially when there is a lot of action.  
    2. When I open "My Computer" it searches for 3-5 minutes before files appear, but when opening "my documents" for example, it opens it without any delay.
    3. Startup is fast but when logging on, computer hangs for a couple of minutes, before completing log on.
    Is there anyone who can help me out???
      plz help

    Hi NovJoe, thanks for the reply. Nice rig by the way.
    Ive disabled all programs except essential windows programs in Task Manager, it didnt help.
    Ive changed to new drivers, uninstalled them, changed to older drivers, tried 7 different drivers.
    VGA card is running cold, CPU is on 40 cel. under full load, RAM is cool as well. PSU isnt running hot either.
    Even checked the chipset, and thats cool also. I switched cabinets and that helped a bit(different PSU).
    Now I only have problems with the lagging when playing.
    So now Ive ordered a new PSU and mobo (MSI 865PE NEO2-V) I have a feeling its the VGA slot thats not giving me enough power to the VGA card.
    And the new PSU is just so cool I had to have it. When Ive complete the build Ill post pics on the forum.
    Anyways, Ill let you guys know if this will solve my problem.

  • Need major help, I have a WRT54G Wireless-G Router and theres too much Lag with My Xbox 360...

    I cant host a game on Gears of War no more on my xbox 360 cuz it also drops and when i play on someone else's game, i get dropped from the middle of a game.
    I have Comcast Hi-Speed Internet and that shouldnt be a problem,

    On my computer i have McAfee Security, but i dont kno if that would slow it down??
    Well when i unplug my router, and do a direct connection to my xbox 360, it is pretty **bleep** good connection. So what is there I can do to fix this slow connection with the router being hooked up?? i have my router in the same room too as my pc and 360.

    yes the ethernet cord is hooked from the xbox 360 to the router

  • Sound lag when playing games

    Hi,
    My Z1 compact has sound issues when playing games.
    There is a noticable sound lag of about a second (not much but is quite annoying), not only on newer games but also on the older ones, Angry Birds for example.  My recorded videos or YouTube don't appear to have the same issue.
    The problem seemed to occur after I had installed Worms 2: Armageddon when the phone got extremely hot and crashed. It was after the phone had reset and cooled down that I noticed the sound lag issue and Worms 2 was running at a very slow frame rate.
    I then installed Worms 2 on my ASUS TF201 and it runs perfectly with no sound or heating issues.
    I can't seem to find anyone else with this issue so i'm wondering if my phone is faulty.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    I suggest that you try to repair the phone software using PC Companion..

  • Serious screen lag when typing in fields with Safari, Chrome, etc.

    With my MacBook Pro 15" i7 I'm experiencing a serious lag time when typing comments in posts online... like right now.. I'll type a few words and nothing shows up on the screen until I stop typing. Then the rest of the words leisurely fill in after I stop.
    This happens in Safari, Chrome, Firefox, etc. On my iMac 27" i7 and MacPro, using the same Airport wi-fi in my house, I do not experience this.
    When I type in Mail, TextEdit, etc., as I type the letters show up as fast as I can type.
    I've got 8GB of RAM, 4GB of free RAM, a MacBook Pro15" i7, 500GB 7200 RPM HDD with plenty of space on it, recently fixed permissions, checked disk with Disk Utility AND DiskWarrior, re-booted, cleared caches, checked for current firmware... what now?
    This doesn't happen on my other Macs, so I know something is up with this machine. (I typed that entire last sentence in before anything showed up on the screen - then when I stopped, after a few seconds, the words filled in.)
    Driving me bonkers! Can anyone offer a solution?

    Im am having the same problems never happen before -15inch macbook pro i7 4 gb ram 500 gb 7200 rpm hd... curious that we both have the 7200 rpm!!?? ....On 2nd laptop same problem and after days with apple online and store -still no answer ....  Here is a link for another thread i'm on with further lag issues im having...

  • Green screen issues when playing videos in fb + youtube

    at first i noticed a re-occurring problem when playing videos via facebook or youtube. A green screen randomly appeared now and then until i reset the laptop. I tried many things, including one suggestion to change quality option from 480p to 140p via settings option in youtube. It worked on some occasions, was able to view video as the green screen disappeared. Of course, as expected, image quality suffered. I contacted Lenovo to inform them of issues I was having with viewing videos, they advised it was a problem with the adobe software and that I should check to see if I have an updated version installed on my laptop. (currently running O/S windows 8.1 and IE 11), I downloaded chrome, fortunately, I am able to view videos in youtube properly even though they appear as a green screen in IE 11. Not so lucky with facebook however, green screens in IE when playing Facebook video uploads appear as black screens in chrome. I reset the laptop and everything appears to be running fine. Is this an adobe software issue? Lenovo seems to think so, Seeing as how others experience the same issue regardless of the make and model of laptop, they may be right.

    Please work through the video troubleshooting guide.

  • Screen lag when plugged for power- since new updates came out..

    I am having some issues with screen lag-locked up screen- not moving screen, since last updates. If I pull out the power plug, it works good , screen moves fast. does anyone have same issue or solution for this issue???
    CAN someone help?

    Try a different wall charger. I was having a similar situation where the phone wouldn't respond to my touch while plugged in when I was using a different transformer plug with my original usb cable. It wasn't until I found my original transformer plug. I never saw the issue with the car charger or an I-Go wall charger.
