If you are seeing the colors correct in Movie Maker and wrong in Media
Player, this is probably a problem in Media Player.

Try looking here:

Tools->Options->Performance->Advanced->Video Acceleration. Try the various
options there for using or not using overlays and other forms of color
correction. In my correctly working installation, all of the Video
Acceleration settings are selected.

As for the video display settings, I prefer to Right click on an empty
space on the desktop and select Properties. Then go to Settings->Advanced
and look for a tab that is customized by your video card manufacturer.
There may be more than one. Browse these tabs and sub-settings until you
find one that mentions Overlays. Normally, there is a button there for
returning to default settings. Click this button and then OK your way back
to the desktop.

Hope this helps,
