I dont know why but the colors are stuffed up. Anything that should be red is now grey/black and even those smile faces isnt yellow, its like there faded Sad

What can i do, ive already tried:

Dead or stuck pixels on your LCD. Dead pixels are unrecoverable, return the product, but you can fix stuck pixels. WikiHow Guide to fixing stuck pixels

Your monitor is going bad. And thats nothing to do with stuck pixels.
Stucks are bright color not faded and shit.

Thanks guys, it turns out its the monitor. Its CRT, the color red was missing, which is odd.

Dam pc stores dont sell CRTs anymore and 19 inch LCDs cost like $250 so around $200 american or so. Isnt that alot?????
I remember getting this monitor for half that 5 years ago.

newer version of the monitor I have, LCD of the gods.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8273101&productCategoryId=pcmcat143700050048&type=product&tab=2&id=1170290765723#productdetail

I'm assuming they are still using 16.7m color panels, which was the main reason I bought mine in the first place.

My problem is fixed, i bought a new monitor but now i have a new problem.

slovach, i just saw that monitor here, its on sale for $297 with 1 year warranty. I ended up buying a 19" ViewSonic but i cant get the resolution to 1440x900. Its not my graphics card (NVIDIA 8500 GT) and ive tried playing around with the settings but nothing. I might return it, i cant find any solutions to this problem online.

Im gonna make a new thread, i hope someone can help me with this problem.
