Aftrunner Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Its hard to tell from that picture but are all the colors f**ked up or is it just when it plays videos that the colors f**k up? If its just in video then it could be a driver issue. Aside from that do the usual, remove the VGA/DVI cable and reconnect it. If your GPU has a 2nd DVI port use that. Or if you are using a GPU try the VGA slot on the motherboard. Lastly if none of those work, borrow someone's laptop and connect it to the monitor with a VGA/HDMI cable and see if the colors are still f**ked up. That will let you know if its the monitor thats gone kapoot or is it your display port on the GPU/motherboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am on a laptop,ill try connecting it to my TV later.I guess its the monitor which has gone haywire . its an HP laptop,which is out of warranty. Never buying one of those again Its not the video its the whole monitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftrunner Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Oh didnt know you were on a laptop. Still, its not all lost. If the connection to your TV works fine and you determine it is the LCD of the laptop thats faulty, take it to Nehru place. They can replace Laptop screens. And its not too expensive either.

Karooo Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 GPU artifacting, maybe its overheating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sackboy Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 nah its problem with laptop screen as the prnt screen proved that you lappy and its components are fine and are sending correct display the problem is with laptop screen check if it is simple cable trouble + cheap fix or laptop screen broke ( around 7k - 10k depending on laptop model ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColorCodePurple Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 GPU artifacting, maybe its overheating. That is maybe true because this happened after I found that my laptop hadnt gone to sleep after I closed the lid it was there without fan for 2 hrs is this bad news?
