Hi,

We recently suffered a power outage, and my 17" AMV 17V5 monitor made by Amptron has never been the same again. It now shows a washed out, greenish tint on its display. Selecting auto config sets the correct brightness and colors, but as soon as auto config is done, it goes back to being greenish and washed out. Turning down the brightness and contrast to zero helps some. Setting negative gamma helps even more with the washed out effect, but does not do anything with the green tint. Tried swapping out signal cables and tried it on another computer. Same result.

Is there any way I can fix this? Thanks in advance!

Take care,
Russ

Auto config huh?
What happens if you manually adjust the other settings -- like changing the color temperature? Also, perhaps if you can look up the settings that auto config changes, you could try those out too.

I tried manually setting the brightness, contrast, and color temperature. I cannot replicate what auto config did. The monitor no longer saves the settings from auto config :( Even at the lowest gamma, contrast, brightness and color temperature, it still appears washed out at times.
