    Hey everyone.

    I recently purchased a new Samsung SyncMaster 226bw 22" screen for a new build. However, I'm waiting on the case to arrive, so I decided to hook it up to my dv2000 for the time being. For some reason, after plugging in the cable and pressing fn + f4 (the function to toggle display modes), the screen is displayed, but in a light blue hue (there is no red color showing). I know for a fact it isn't the monitor, as A. it happened before with another screen B. it worked for about 5 seconds before transitioning to it's all blue state and C. it worked on my other desktop. Is there anyway to fix this?

    Any help appreciated.

    I also wasn't sure to post this in the HP forums or somewhere else...though seeing it isn't related to the monitor itself I thought this was somewhat appropriate...
