Bad Jagged lines after reformat

Hello & thanks for looking,

I'm not sure if this is a graphic card problem,
but i'm thinking it might be.
I reformatted my computer last week due to a bad virus,
and everything seemed to be running perfect and clean
until i reinstalled Flash CS5.5 to see that all my art is jagged and
horrible looking. Before the reformat all the lines were smooth as
can be, and now it's only slightly smooth when i zoom in very
close. The further i zoom, the clearer it seems to become
for some of the lines.
I've tried some basic fixes i found on google without any effect (Change view-Full, let application choose in graphic settings ).
For some reason i do not have a Anti-Alias option in my flash preferences,
so i was not able to change it.

I've installed most the drivers from HP and updated the graphic card,
here's system specs in case it helps.
----------
Windows Vista 'Home Premium
Service Pack1

Pavilion e9180f Elite
Intel(R) core(TM) i7 CPU 920@ 2.67GHz
9.00GB
64-bit Operating System

Nvidia Geforce GTS 250
Resolution
1920 by 1080 (60Hertz)
-------------

In the example picture you can see how
some lines are less jagged, when others
are a mess. There's no difference in quality between
regular paintshop and Flash cs5.5 for me, if anyone
could share some solutions i'd be very grateful.

Let me know if anymore information is needed, Thanks!

They look the same to me.

Could you try another monitor?

What are you actual settings for the image,.. 32bit?
Did you get a proper driver for the monitor?

I have to agree with PatonB, the lines appear smooth on the screenshot you uploaded, i think it maybe a phase issue with your monitor, have you tried to auto adjust?

Thanks for the fast replys, sorry i wasn't able to reply yesterday.
Helps alot just knowing you guys see those lines smoothly.

I tried using my other monitor and the lines were still just
as jagged. i messed around with resolution but nothing seemed
to help (Auto adjust seems to not be available on this monitor)

I've tried almost every combination of video card settings,
i also have some other graphic cards i could test out,
but i just installed Rift & it's playing perfectly with highest
graphic output. Starting to be a bigger problem to
solve the deeper i get :(. Terribly jagged lines in flash is the
only problem right now.



Patonb-
What are you actual settings for the image,.. 32bit?
Sorry i'm not sure how to check this, i have 64bit
flash installed.

Did you get a proper driver for the monitor?
It says that it has the most updated driver, i never
installed anything for it. (Very new monitor)

Do you have the full version of vista or a set of recovery disk's.
-I'm not sure how to check, i took it to a computer shop and
they did the reformat.

Does your system have a partition or not.
-Yes

When did you do the reformat and installation of vista.
-Last Monday

What software is on your system right now.
-Pretty much only have Flash cs5.5 , Rift, and Avast.

What is the name of your Anti-Virus.
