My display colors are not chaning it looks like it is in safe mode

if your pc is starting in safe mode, open up msconfig and on the boot.ini tab, you need to remove the tick from the box that says safeboot.

could be with the monitor or video card/controller. first thing is to test another monitor if available and use a working video cable. if same thing happens, test if it is stable in safe mode. Restart the computer and press F8, then select Safe Mode. If display is stable in safe mode, it would be a video controller. Uninstall the existing driver, then download the latest one for your system through Dell support site.

Please follow the steps given below and I am sure that your problem will be resolved.

1) Click on Start
2) Click on Control Panel
3) Click on Display
4) Click on Settings Tab
5) Increase the Screen Resolution
6) Select the Color Quality to 32 bit (Highest).

Press Apply.

If the screen resolution is correct press OK.

Hope that it would resolve the problem...

You have set the resolution outside the parameters of what the screen can display.

Please give following a try:

Try starting up in Safe mode by pressing F8 as soon as you see the HP logo on the screen at startup, then choose safe mode.

If there are colors within safe mode, try going to Start-->Right click on My Computer and go to Manage.

From there go to device manager on the left side and on the right side click the plus next to Display adapters

Under there right click and uninstall all display adapters, then reboot

Windows should reinstall all drivers for the display and hopefully will correct the issue

You many need to reseat the Apple DVI to ADC Adapter that is connecting your Apple Cinema HD 23" to your Mac.

If that adapter is not properly seated, it can cause a color distortion with the display. Also, if the adapter is damaged, that can also impact proper resolution and color balance.

To try and resolve this issue for you, I have a procedure I would like you to try:

----------------------------------------------------------------
-SAFE BOOT MODE-

I am going to have you take your Mac into Safe Mode to see if we can't isolate what may be affecting your display's resolution.

Try these steps:

• Reboot your Mac
• Upon restarting your Mac, press the Shift key.
• Hold the Shift key until you see a White Screen with Gray Apple icon and eventually a spinning gear.
• When you see the Spinning gear, release the Shift key.
• Allow the Mac to continue booting up. Also this may take a little while
(NOTE: this may take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes to load to the Safe mode screen depending on the performance of your Mac, but if it exceeds this time, shutdown your Mac and try just once more. It may have just frozen up the first time around for you.)

• You are going to enter the Safe Mode (which looks like your main desktop environment - the only difference is certain startup items are disabled.)

• Once within the Desktop in Safe Mode
• From the Finder Menu, click Go> Go to Folder
• Type in this line: /System/Library/StartupItems
• This path, is going to take you to the System Library folder which has all of your Mac OS X Startupitems.
• Remove all of those folders to the Trash.

*Reboot your Mac normally and see if you can access your normal User desktop environment.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is an additional support reference for troubleshooting Apple Cinema Displays color or distortion issues.

This should help. If it does not let me know.

it sounds like you may have an updated driver that doesn't work with your machine. boot into SAFE mode. on a dell it is hitting the Del button for most of them as it is booting up. then choose safe mode. For other dells it is F1 or F2 you just keep hitting the button while its booting up until you hear it start to beep at you. then look for safe mode. while in safe mode you can then change the driver, but for those specifics you have to go to dells web site. http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/quicktest?c=us&l=en&~ck=mn

well then your gay

If u an go IN SAFE MODE with admin privileges so install it :

Hello,

Try going to Windows Safe Mode. You do this by pressing the F8 key repeatedly exactly after you hear your computer beep when it is rebooting. This should bring you to a screen that will have 3 Safe Modes listed, choose just plain Safe Mode by using your arrow keys to highlight Safe Mode and press enter. Once in Safe Mode, a box will come up asking you if you intended to enter Safe Mode, click Yes. You should now see your desktop, however it will look larger, and with less colors. This is normal.

If this mode did not allow you to get into windows, then reboot, press F8 like before and select Enable VGA Mode instead.

Now that you hopefully have a desktop, try this link which will take you to a video that will walk you through the process of setting up your DualView monitors. Also, note that there are some check boxes that allow you to select which monitor you want to be the primary.

I realize this video is specific Windows 2000, but the process is the same for Windows XP.

Hope this helps and Good luck!
