Windows Server Forum / Windows 2000 / Update / October 2005Help! Green Screen after Update
Hi All, After installing update KB904368 my screen has turned green. All white areas are tinted green and other colors seem to be showing up differently. Is there a fix for this other than uninstalling the update? The green tinge is really hard on the eyes. Thank you to anyone who can help. Suspect pure coincidence, check monitor "color settings" in the OSD accessed by the monitor adjustment buttons. > Hi All, > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > update?

The green tinge is really hard on the eyes. Thank you to >> anyone who can help. I uninstalled that update; the green persisted for the restart, then the screen color turned back to normal after just a moment or two, so there is definitely something wrong with that update. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? Gail >Hi Bob, > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] >>> update? The green tinge is really hard on the eyes. Thank you to >>> anyone who can help.

My monitor doesn't have any color adjustment button, unfortunately. I had to uninstall the update to get the normal color of the screen back.

Out of curiosity, what video card and monitor are you using and are the drivers the latest from the manufacturer? > Thank you, Bob.

As far as I know, the video card driver is current, but I'm not sure about the monitor's. The change in screen color is definitely linked to that update on my system for some reason, and I really don't know what to do about it. I guess I could try finding out whether my monitor driver is current. I didn't even know the monitor needed a driver. Gail >That's a rather odd side effect.

I'm not sure if that's even possible because I no longer have a product code, etc., for accessing their site (I tried yesterday). The pc was a gift in 2001 but the monitor didn't come with it - it was bought second hand, I think, and was also a gift from someone else. The pc originally came installed with Win ME, but after the first hard drive crash I installed Win 2K on the new hard drive. So, you see, the pc has been through a lot of changes. I moved cross country a year ago and the slip of paper with my computer's product code is lost. I could try and get the serial number off the back. I'm sorry to be writing so much - I just have a lot of confusion. Gail >Contact Dell Support.

Since you have "switched out" the original supplied operating system and drivers that came with the PC it's likely that you are running with whatever defaults came on the Win2k cd. Get "Everest" from the link below, run it to find out what hardware you have, then visit the video adapter manufacturers web site and get a current driver. The monitor manufacturer will likely also have an inf file but that is not as important as the video card drivers. http://www.lavalys.com/products/overview.php?pid=1&lang=en > Thank you.
