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,
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? mjones53 enlightened us with: > 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,
Plow is right........If you got the 77.72 drivers then they are the problem. The older 71.84 work fine.

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% -- Ian P <email invalid due to spammers> "mjones53" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8VZve.6308$[email hidden]... > 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, > >
