Hey, recently formatted and reinstalled xp.

Everything is fine apart from one detail.

My videos play in either washed out or grey scale colour. :|

Games are fine, pictures are fine, GUI is fine, but for some damned reason video sucks. Sometimes media player will play a second or two of video then just die.

All other video players such as DIVX youtube etc work, but with the same colour problems.

Im on a 7600gt AGP.

Anyoen know of any reason this has happened?

-----------------------------------EDIT---------------

It would appear microsoft have once again been ghey.

When i set my microsoft "certified" webcam to B&W mode, it decided to adjust my nvidea video settings (which it didnt need to) then not set them back even after id put cam back in colour.

In short, Sorry to bother you, but im keeping this post as a dedication to to how annoying Microsoft are lol.

Id hate to think its a hardware fault on my gfx card:(
 
I had something similar once and it turned out to be my colour settings in the nvidia control panel specific to the video overlay (which is why it didn't affect the gui or anything other than movies/videos, and why it affected all players), they somehow started out with really stupid defaults.
