Not really.

*ahem*

I recently moved, and someway, the color on this monitor is all dark now. I've tried changing the color on the monitor and the color from 32 to 16 to 256 to 32 bit, and when restarting, it just says:

Windows is now restarting...

And then nothing happens, never restarts, even after half an hour.

I've degaussed it.

Help?

if its a CRT (one of those big olad monitors) youre missing a color cable, if its an LCD monitor, its broken.

your computer and monitor probably recieved some shock during the move

Did you change any settings in the computer?

Yeah, I got that answer too at another forum. This monitor is fairly new.

Man, this SUCKS.

maybe im missing something.. but there should be buttons on the monitor itself to change the brightness, hue, colors and everything..

If that doesnt work, maybe your video card has an option to change gamma and all those other settings.
