Video playback is real dark

No clue what happend.

No matter what i use (WMP, realplayer, VLC) All video is real dark and contrast is off.

I have windows xp pro and my GPU is Nvidia geforce 8800Gtx

Its not a driver for the GPU because it was doing this with the previous driver (not the whole time i had this driver) and with the new one.

Ive never had this issue before...

any ideas?

In the nVidia Control Panel, there is a pane under 'Video & Television' called 'Adjust video colour settings'. These options only apply to video playback. Check that all are set to 50%.
