From: Violet on 14 Jul 2010 08:31 Hi: The screen, both desktop and all other screen getting 'dull-green,' although letter/words is very clear which enable to read and type. Prior to this occurred, the screen is 'crisp blue.' I did not change anything for this to occur. Then, it's quite puzzling me. My question is : How to get the screen back to the original color, ... 'crisp blue screen?' Thanks for your help in advance.

If it is a CRT monitor, it's likely its own controls (use the buttons on the monitor) won't sufficiently bias the color to get rid of the color tinge. It's old and needs to be replaced. Computer makers have gone to LCD so find another CRT will be tough and perhaps expensive (since those having them will probably charge for their storage since the makers stop producing CRT monitors awhile back). Did you use the software installed with the video card to ensure that its settings were reset to the defaults? Did you yet play with the controls on the monitor? And are we to GUESS at which monitor you have?

Yes you did or someone with access to the machine did. > Then, it's quite puzzling me. > > My question is : > How to get the screen back to the original color, ...
