Display colors

[Don]

Wierdest thing. Started my computer today and the entire
color scheme had changed. Nobody but me has touched the
computer since last night. Have a rainbow fade effect
working. Tried display properties theme change, desktop
change, background color change, appearance change, color
scheme, nothing seems to work. Color changes have
appeared on toolbars, the taskbar, text, websites,
everywhere. I have a picture of what it looks like. I
would kill for default(blue). This is making me nuts.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

You've obviously got a problem with your video card. Troubleshoot in
this order: 1) reinstall the video card drivers from the card mftr.'s
website; 2) connect the computer to a different monitor to see if the
monitor is at fault; 3) if the monitor is fine, swap out the card with
a known-good one and if the "new" card works, replace your original
video card. If you are uncomfortable working with hardware, then take
the machine to a good local computer repair shop (not a BestBuy or
CompUSA type of store).

Good luck,
