pastel colors in monitors
« on: May 21, 2005, 11:53:42 AM »
I have tried everything to correct a color problem
with a monitor. It suddenly went from your normal colors
to pastels. Does anyone know why it is doing this.

Thanks mmorga3

Have you tried updating your video card drivers by going to your card manufacturer's website? Did you make any changes to your system before this happened? Have you tried using another monitor? Do you have virus and Spyware protection?

I think your right it is time for a new monitor. But I will try to update the drivers again. Thanks for your help.

You have more options when it comes to testing the monitor:

  • Re-adjust colour schemes.
  • Test the monitor on another computer and/or videocard.
  • Degauss your monitor.
