This is coming from your monitor. It is normal for an LCD (flat panel)
monitor to do this. Refer to your monitor manual for more details.

If you run the LCD monitor in analog mode (most people do), the monitor will
self adjust from the bios startup resolution (which is something rather low)
to your final desktop resolution. You do not want to prevent this from
happening or your desktop image will be messed up.

Now, if you have your monitor connected to a video card that has digital
output, are using a digital cable between the card and the monitor, and the
monitor is set for digital operation (it had better be) - none of this will
happen. Everything just works as it should, without any adjustments at all
(except for color, contrast, brightness etc.).

maybe the color was green now it two shades of green, horizontal. Cause?.

Using the "monitor" controls, reset the color settings to default. Then you
can start anew to make custom changes.

Tom Willett thanks for your reply. Does me no good. Trying to re-install
ViewSonic software and drivers, for some reason installation shuts down
Explorer has something to do with DEP. Beyond my abilities. All the problems
started with doing sfc scannow hoping to correct the defrag program from not
running. Really a bad day.

Sorry! I find it impossible to believe that Viewsonic does not give you a
way to revert back to a standard setting. I have had 5 different Viewsonic
monitors and they have all had this feature. It may be called something
else, so search for it in the setup program.

Read your manual.

I am presently using a Samsung 930B LCD monitor in digital mode. I can
revert the colors, contrast and brightness to factory default. It is called
reset in Samsung language.

Check your manual.

Richard Urban,
Just a point of information and thanks for your reply.
Turns out after doing a sfc scannow, maybe a coincidence, the monitor went
bad, tried another LCD monitor of the same brand, ViewSonic and it worked
fine. Dont know why that happened. All my equipment is surge protected and I
didn't have any bad weather around here. Guess I'm in the market for a new
monitor. Not something I am looking forward to.

Good to see that you solved your problem. Not good that the problem turns
out to be what it is.

Talked to viewsonic tech support to find out if it could be repaired. Tech
support informed me it was out of warranty, cheaper to buy a new monitor,
repair over 350.00.

Welcome to the throw away society.

I remember in the 1960's when I repaired anything that went wrong with
T.V.'s, down to the component level. It was nothing to replace a transistor,
diode, cap, tuner etc "in the customers home". (-:

It's a damned shame. Even a upgrade with trade in would have been
acceptable. You accumulate equipment with no disposal capabilities.
