No Full screen and failing display driver

1st thing: Fullscreen
When trying to watch videos on the internet, I press the fullscreen button or link and on my screen (instead of what I was watching), two triangles (one in each corner making a square cut in half diagonally top right to bottom left both a different colour) shows up. I have a Radeon HD 3450 Graphics card and a Flatron W2234s monitor. What's going on?

2nd: Failing Driver
I know my driver is capable of displaying the graphics of the games I am playing, however when I am playing the games the screen goes black and the game shuts down and a message comes up saying "Display Driver has failed/stopped working". I am running windows vista, I have ATI Catalyst Control Center. I have also tried to update my friver but it says I have the most recent update.

Hopefully someone has an answer, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I don't think so, because that is how the video may have been posted.

Can't get out of fullscreen mode

According to Gamespot, you can toggle full screen mode by pressing F8.

Note: The link shows controls for the demo, but the controls for the full version should be the same.

How do I get a "full-screen" playback (video) on

To get a full-screen playback on your Nikon D90 you have to play a video. Then, if you see sort of highlights or histograms, press UP and DOWN on the multiselector until you get your fullscreen view. It is probably to see thumbnails or calendar. In this situation, press OK at the center of the multiselector and then press UP and DOWN until you get to fullscreen.

I hope this will hep!

No FullScreen

Either update your flash or re-install the video driver for your laptop. Go to google and lookup Acer Support. Then put the model number in and they should provide drivers.

Full screen

What games do you play?
In some internet games you can press F11 for full screen.
Though in most games you have to go through their menu's to get full screen.
In windows the default keystroke for fullscreen in Alt, Enter pressed together.
Though that is not a guarantee either.
Generally how to get full-screen is different from game to game in some sort of settings menu.
For instance I play Last Chaos online and it is automatically full-screen.
When I played runescape online I had to select full-screen at the log in screen.
