382123 2005-08-19 01:09:00 Currently have a problem viewing video clips on my computer. Seems that the colour is all screwed up, being way too bright and contrasted in both winamp and media player. Have uninstalled all video codecs and programs back to basic initial configaration but it is still bad. Have tried to figure out what I may have changed in the past but it just seems to have gone like it without my aid. Monitor colour has not changed at all so it is nothing to do with monitor settings. Have latest nvidia drivers but they fail to fix it.

Anything I could try to rectify this?

Cheers

382124 2005-08-19 01:28:00 What version of the Nvidia drivers are installed??

77 . 72 made the colours go funny .

The latest version of the Nvidia drivers are now 77 . 77, which fixes this prob (The 77 . 76 beta drivers fixed it too) .

You try writing drivers for all the different combinations of O/Ss and hardware thats out there and get it perfect every time . Nodoubt some people didn't have that issue at all with that version . . . .

382128 2005-08-19 04:00:00 Nope a LOT of people noticed the colours in 77.72. And had the same prob.

They were too bright etc.

Thats why Nvidia released 77.76 and 77.77.
