The color range is set to full, changing it to limited or auto washes the colors out more but the blacks are still gray. On the nVidia system there is no special setting on the control panel, everything is just out of the box.
Might be my old Sony TV that has the problem. Gonna go check on a friend's TV and keep you posted.

I'm not on my NUC right now, but last time I checked you should have options in the various menus to use Application Settings or custom settings. IE. the application will control the color levels etc. See if you can try that and report back if there are any changes.
