TFT turning blue

As the title really, I have 2 identical 19" TFT's and the left hand one has turned blue, I cannot get it to show white at all, I have been through all the OSD menus to no avail, it is almost like a CRT with a gun gone.

Any ideas?





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Make sure (if VGA) cable is fully plugged in, they can get into a state of half attachment if not screwed in and make the screen go predominatly one colour.

Yep, ususally a VGA cable not seated, cracked, oxidised pins. Often just unplugging and replugging back in cures it.

Also I've noticed several dual head set ups (specifically using Dell PCs + TFT) where the 2nd screen has a noticable different hue to it.

It may also be that the dual head/other PC has a different gama setting. Try swapping over the monitors, if they swap colour problem then its the graphics card/PC set up.
