T410: Display issue- colors go faint

I have a T410 i5 integrated graphics with WXGA+ display. Recently I noticed a strange issue with the display. After using the laptop for a couple of hours, sometime the colors on my screen would go faint and they stay that way even if I move around mouse etc. If I lock and unlock then the display returns back to crisp colors as before.

I have noticed this issue with display color going faint a couple of times now. So I was wondering if this is something other T410 owners have noticed as well. Just trying to figure out if the time has come to call Lenovo support.

Disable that.

Right click your desktop, click graphics properties and you should see the above.

Thanks namaiki. I had this happen a few times too and it was quite annoying.

 

I just reformatted and they have updated the software. Any idea where to find this setting with the new version anyone?
