wamason Posted February 3, 2005 Posted February 3, 2005 Hi everyone, I bought a NEC LCD Monitor from a friend, and I'm having a bit of trouble with it. My problem is the color. The whole screen has a red tint. I've tried adjusting the color settings and the brightness/contrast in the LCD itself, but I can't get it to look right. For example: The smiley Icons on the forum here look like a DARK orange, instead of yellow like on my CRT. I've downloaded the NEC drivers, and the Monitor's color profile, but nothing really helps. Any help would be appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastvfr Posted February 3, 2005 Posted February 3, 2005 Did you try lowering the % of red in the color settings section of the ATI control panel? Also check your refresh rate to see if it isn't set a bit high for your LCD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cable has a few small cuts on it from rubbing something. I tried another video cable and it works great now. Thanks for the help!
