I guess that you are refering to your screen, auto adjusting? If you were to set the screen to equal the PC or set the PC the equal the screen, it should stop having to adjust. If not your screen, please repost your question with more detail. Thank you.
boot the computer into safe mode by pressing F8 as the computer boots up. then in safe mode adjust the resolution and/or refresh rate. then reboot and tweak to your liking.
Your video card or monitor sounds like it might be malfunctioning. Have you tried another monitor? Does it show anything on the screen after turning on the computer? If it does then goes to "Auto Adjust" then try restarting and pressing F8 over and over until you get a menu. Then select VGA Mode. Change the screen resolution by right clicking on the desktop and clicking "Properties" then the "Settings" tab. Use the slider to lower the resolution and then restart.
Might be a loose connection, a bad cable, or a bad video card. I'd try the monitor on a different computer--even a laptop. Should give you an answer as to what's wrong. With the laptop, reboot it with the video cable attached.
The screen colour changing is apparently an auto test procedure on the monitor and was prompted by a fault with the monitor not automatically shutting down when the computer is shut down. The settings on the monitor have been adjusted to rectify this and the problem is now gone.
