Video playback in PowerPoint 2007

[Guest]

When playing back a Windows Media File (video) in PowerPoint 2007 on a
Gateway Tablet PC C-120 loaded with Vista Business, the video plays back with
the incorrect color hue. When playing the file outside of PowerPoint the
color hue is correct. Any ideas how to solve this mystery? Why does the
video color hue change once it is part of the PowerPoint file? Thanks!

Check to see if there is an updated video driver for the tablet.

In addition to Austin's suggestion, check the video properties. Make sure it's
set to 24-bit color/True color/16 million colors or higher.
