My head is literally spinning from frustration right now. Please, if only I could get some help with this, there must be some fix.
I have a Dell inspiron 1526, and when I connect a monitor to the vga output, everything works fine, except no greens are displayed. This causes all whites to have a pinkish red tint, and all other colors are off bigtime. I did a color test, and came to the conclusion that there are no greens being displayed. A pic that is supposed to be solid green appears completely black. It basically looks like an "overly-warm" temp image. Really bad on the eyes.
The thing is, when using the normal display, the colors are fine. But with an external monitor, it's horrible. And I know it's not the monitor or the cable because I have tried both of my monitors (a Dell CRT and a Samsung 1080p LCD) and the issue is the same on both. And yes, both of thier native resolutions are supported and were being used. I have also messed with all CCC settings and the vista display settings and they have no impact.
This is a freakin joke, I literally just purchased this laptop 3 months ago. My older laptop of 3 years works fine when outputted, but with this laptop I cannot fix it. There must be somewhere to edit color files, since my display adapter is capable of displaying greens.
Please, anybody, I am so desperate for a fix, if anyone can help or give some insight I would highly appreciate it. I have been at this for hours, but couldn't seem to find much on google, even though i've been trying all afternoon.
Thanks
