Computer Display Help
Hey guys I am having a problem when I am viewing certain videos. Both in WMP and on the sites themselves. The colors get all inverted and are mostly green pink and orange. I have no idea why this is happening, the vids work fine on my other computer. I tried to post a screen shot but where the video is is just black on the screen shot. I am going to update my video card drivers, but is there anything else I should be looking for? Thanks.

Updating your video card drivers is a good starting point. But which windows are you running? (I'm guessing 2000/xp). I'm running WMP 9.00 but just open WMP and go to View/Enhancements/Video Settings and click the thing that says reset. Hopefully that was your prob.

Yep you do have a CODEC problem. Download a spyware free CODEC package. That will fix you right up.
