Acer Screen Problem

I moved my screen and touched something that made my screen go to a pink tint - how do I get it back to regular clear screen

Hi, welcome to TSF

Check the cable at the back of the monitor and/or graphics port. If the connector has come loose while you were moving it, the pins won't be making proper contact which can cause the screen to display strange colours. Make sure it's firmly plugged in and the 2 screws are tight.

Also, check your manual to see which button to press on the front of the monitor to reset everything back to default.
