Hi Carol.

Make sure you have the latest video card drivers then check what it says about the 
Monitors in Device Manager. If it says default then thats the reason you can 
change the colours. If you can't find your monitor drivers on the web then just select 
a SVGA from the choice of available monitors.

Keith, I'll try that. I forgot to mention that I can't restart , I get NVCORE errors. I'm going to try what you said Many Thanks, Carol
