colour problem

[Guest]

I had to dismantle my system to move PC to another room. On re-assembly
I have a problem with colour. Red has gone from all computer programmes.
The only place red shows up is on monitor adjustment menu.

Some helpful suggestions would be appreciated.

Depends how for you went with 'dismantle'
Sound like maybe a loose connection / vid card

Hi TC, I had a similar problem with the colour green, try cleaning the
contacts on the video cable and make sure that none of the pins are bent and
that the cable is securely fastened . Just a thought.

Except for that last sentence, I would suspect a loose cable connecting the
monitor and the video card. Even with the last sentence, make sure it's
connected tightly.
