Windows Media Player 11 - White screen displayed when playing vide

Hi all. I have a new HP dv9300 laptop computer with Windows Vista Home
Premium installed. Whenever I start Windows Media Player 11 and try and play
a video, it only shows a white screen. I have no idea why this is happening
and have been searching the internet and have come up with nothing. I have
tried DivX and a wide variety of codecs (K-Lite, divX codec packs) and
nothing seems to be working. Even the Divx player displays the same white
screen. The movie plays, but there is no picture. HELP!!!

I just fixed it in the Nvidia control panel. Under video/tv settings, adjust video color settings. There was a box checked for "Use the nvidia control panel color settings, i unchecked it, hit "Apply" and the videos all worked fine. I suppose you could adjust it once you got the hang of it but i just unchecked it and moved on. Hope this helps!

I had the same problem and just tried this fix and it worked.

Thank you so much.
