|
Answer» the monitor has a pink color. everything that should be white is a light pink and I do not know what to do about it. the computer is a emachines t1140 running xp pro, with a dell monitor. does anyone have any suggestionsReinstall video card driver?worth a try, it has integrated video but I might get a updated driver from IntelThey should have video driver at eMachines site. Download fresh driver, uninstall current one, install new one.Can you check the colour SETTINGS in your monitor's MENU (click the menu button on the monitor)Also check your monitor's cable. Make sure none of the pins are damaged or bent, and that the connectors aren't loose.is that a new monitor? i have encountered that same problem before on my office's monitor (Samsung SyncMaster 551v) only that, that monitor is almost 5 years old! i don't know on yours....as quaxo has said, make sure the cables are securely fastened and correctly connected. my monitor went pink once and it was because of a loose VGA cable.

Bend it slightly and the projector will go pink or yellow, Sometimes green.I agree with you guys, loose or defective cables can cause this kind of problem.. you can spot this problem by holding and moving the cable gently in any direction.. the monitor changes its color as you move the cable... what i mean is that i want to know if wannabe1's monitor is NEW? my problem before is because my monitor is 5 years old or so, and because its an ANALOG monitor, internal calibration and alignment must be done to that poor old stuff.... i have replaced it though, not used it again.... I have also seen Electro Magnetic Interference do this. Are there any other eloctronic devices close to the monitor? Is it a CRT or LCD screen?hi if it's CRT monitor , i have to say bad news. your monitor may burn. ( 98% burn , 2% other event) driver problem is vary far. some say problem of cable. for testing it ( cable ) sea the plug place of cable to monitor or vga PORT and search for rag. if rag is in the middle of cable you can not see. good testing for all cable is using a "VOLTMETER" and testing one by one of nail. good lock Quote from: k_mohsen on June 28, 2008, 09:20:47 AM your monitor may burn. ( 98% burn , 2% other event) Completely inaccurate advice. The entire screen appearing pink wouldn't be from burn... especially a 98% chance.Hey, thanks for the suggestions. I tried a third monitor and it works fine. Maby I finally got a good connection. I really don't know.It was most likely the cable or the port on your video card. Sometimes a little shifting of things gets them working again. |
