    i just formated my computer and now after i've re-installed everything, when i try to play a video it's in black and white. i have a tv connected through s video and everything playing onto the tv is red! i have a gforce PCX 5750 pci-e card... latest drivers from nvidia, that's the only thing that is different besides me installing sp2 after the install, video drivers used to be old. i don't know if there is some setting that i am messing up or w/e

    Thanks in advance

    Hello,

    I had the same problem after I formatted my hard drive today. I was using PowerDVD XP (4.0), GeForce 4 video card with the latest Nvidia unified driver. I installed Service Pack 2 and got black and white playback. I resolved it by re-installing the same Nvidia video driver. Hope this helps. All the best.
