...unless you want your videos and DVD's to look like cr@p. There seems to be a serious bug in this release. Switch back to v71.89. Search nVidia or Guru3D forums for more discussions on this issue.

PS: BattleField 2 seems to benefit from 77.72 according to various sources.

i see absolutely no bug in this version!!!???!!!

sorry... for that.....
i just ran my shrek2.avi DivX PRO encoded and the colors are blooded... everything jammed.... only if i maximize the brightness then i can see the color correctly but it is immpossible to a good movie experience in such brightness! the colors become very light.... but they are in ration though...
