Title: Graphics problem: Too much green Post by: Calantus on October 18, 2007, 08:00:21 PM Right now my laptop display is showing way too much green, and this is seemingly on grey areas. Blue looks fine, as does green, it's only on grey or offwhite areas. Yesterday I installed a codec pack that probably had something to do with it, but really I'd rather not have to mess around with undoing that, is there any color utility or process I could run to correct the color symptom?

Title: Re: Graphics problem: Too much green Post by: Calantus on October 18, 2007, 08:06:12 PM ATI RADEON X2300
It's an ASUS F3Jr if that is relevant. Title: Re: Graphics problem: Too much green Post by: Trippy on October 18, 2007, 08:14:27 PM The ATI control panel should have color correction controls.

I had a monitor that had a bad cable once... it did something similar. Unfortunately for you, if this is your issue, it wouldn't be easily fixed in a laptop without disassembling it.

I did, however have another issue like this over the weekend (ironically) I had installed Vista (which sucks) and EVERYTHING was tinted yellow. It eventually ended up being related to Vista automatically installing my monitors "default" color profile. I had to download and install a generic Adobe one to correct it. Later, it didn't matter for me though. I un-installed Vista when I found out it cut my framerate in half.
