Earlier today i formatted my computer, reinstalled everything, now when i try to play a video file, the colors are all distorted, looks to dark sortof. Anyways, my first guess was codecs, tried 3 different codecs, still the same, then tried a dvd, (.vob file) still same problem, then i thought it might be the playback program, tried 3 different ones of that too, to no good effect.
These files all worked fine before reinstalling computer.

Comp specs Dual 7800 GTX SLI, AMD FX 57, 3G ram

Im hoping someone can give me an idea on how to fix this.

I forgot all about this thread. Mines fixed now by reinstalling drivers (same exact version drivers), just removed and reinstalled them. Did the trick for me.
