Default LCD Display Almost Monochrome

wrote:
Picked up a cheapo 15" LCD monitor (Proview) today at a yard sale. It
starts up OK, but the desktop display shows everything in shades of
blue only. I can see text and icons fine, images are all monochrome
also.
No white, red, green, anything else. The OSD control box displays in
white, red, and a deep blue.
OSD works to adjust contrast and brilliance, but color adjustment for
red and green does nothing.,
The plug that connects to the PC seems to have all its pins in place,
opened the back of the monitor and reseated the video connection, Still
blue.
Tried it on another computer, still blue.
I'm thinking it might be the cable from computer to monitor?
Any ideas?
Thanks.



Could be, check the cable with an ohm meter and find out.
