Grey scale desktop on my TV (secondary display), but fine on my LCD(primary display)!
Weird. Today, I see my TV output in clone and extended desktop modes,
the TV one (secondary display) is in black and white/grey scale while my primary monitor (1280x1024 resolution) is in normal colors. I tried cmd.exe's edit.com and going full screen and I saw colors in text mode. Then, I tried playing videos fullscreen to TV and it was in colors too. Why is my desktop on TV have no colors? I am using S-Video from my MSI Radeon 4870 video card (512 MB) to my old VCR to my 20" CRT TV. It used to work and I didn't change anything recently that I could remember. I did notice ACEEventLog when enabling my secondary display (TV): Event Type: Information Event Source: ACEEventLogSource Event Category: None Event ID: 0 Date: 6/3/2009 Time: 10:40:16 PM User: N/A Computer: MYBOX Description: 0000000018: 2009-06-03 22:40:16:687 Unable to obtain Color Correction information, dem status: -2 Error Called by: ATI.ACE.CLI.Aspect.DeviceProperty.Graphics.Runtime .DevicePropertyColourCorrectionController::Parse processID:02388 threadID ) domainNameccc.exe ) assemblyNameCLI.Aspect.DeviceProperty.Graphics.R untime, Version=2.0.3405.36870, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=90ba9c70f846762e) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [snipped MS help info.] I tried fiddling with Catalyst v9.5 Control Center (CCC)'s options especially colors, but nothing helped. Same for hitting defaults on them. I even tried rebooting my PC to see if something broke. Nope. Thank you in advance. -- "Ever watch ants just crawling around?
