    Monitor not always showing red
    « on: September 02, 2008, 07:23:06 PM »
    Hi and thank-you in advance for any help!  If I missed this topic somewhere in the forum, please redirect me (I did a search and didn't find an answer). 

    I have a Gateway EV910 (I know, super old right?).  I've noticed that sometimes my monitor does not show any red and other times it's fine (right now it's not).  BUT, when I look to make adjustments on the monitor itself, the dialog box shows red as clearly as the other colors ALL of the time.  Do I need a new driver or do I need a whole new monitor?

    Thank-you again!

    Welcome to ComputerHope.

    Is it possible you can try another monitor? (borrow one)

    ...or try your monitor on another computer.

      I will try both of those ideas (a new monitor and using my monitor on another computer) and let you know what I come up with.  Thank-you
