For some reason all of the colors are messed up now when I try to play
movies using the windows media player?
Anyone ever heard of this or no how to fix it.

Thanks,

Plowbo

oh man, you are going to hate me, but I had this ONCE, I hope to think it
was a vid card- driver issue, or did I format and reinstall, hmmmm  long ass
time ago.
I think it was win98, too.  what you running?

Plow is right........If you got the 77.72 drivers then they are the problem.  The older 71.84 work fine.

Wag

With the 77.72's, open your Nvidia settings and under color correction, if "apply color changes to:" is set to desktop change it to all. That should correct your problem.

Have a nice day.

Check the settings in the video overlay tab of the Nvidia section of your
display properties.
Make sure the hue is about 0% and the saturation about 100%
