    hmmmmmm looks like there is a kind of negitive effect applied to it. What codecs are you using for videos? Might be worth checking them and their settings.

    oh i thought you would have already had something like xvid codec already on there, so you havent actually installed any extra codecs etc????
    What format are the videos you have?

    Check the display is set to 32bit colour. (Right click desktop/properties)
