what was the resolution of your old monitor?also what kind of monitor did you have before?

petinka · 08-25-2007, 12:20 PM

lg flatron ez t710sh
used 1024x768

**pharoah** · 08-25-2007, 12:22 PM

in your first post you said 1280x1024 is that the resolution you are playing at now?if so try it at the old res of 1024x768 to see if that has any affect.

with the new monitor are you useing the vga input,or the dvi?

petinka · 08-25-2007, 05:02 PM

**pharoah** · 08-25-2007, 05:18 PM

try the vga port to see if that makes any difference.

petinka · 08-25-2007, 06:47 PM

no difference :(

have you tried reinstalling the video card drivers yet?

petinka · 08-26-2007, 01:31 PM

Check your color profile settings for the color problems at least. Go into Display settings and go to settings tab. Then to advanced, then you should see a color profile thing somewhere. Sorry Im in Windows Vista right now and dont have time to boot into Windows XP :P

Once you see those color profiles, delete the one thats activated, it screws up colors sometimes. It did it on my Samsung monitor for colors in the Vista photo viewer.

Also try reseatting your video card and when you isntall the drivers, uninstall them first. Dont just try and overlap, it does nothing.
