Hello! So for two days I've been banging my head against the wall with this issue:

Computer is a Dell Optiplex 380 Intel (R) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU E7500@ 2.93GHz, 2.00 GB of Ram running Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 3.
The adapter is a NVIDIA GeForce 9300GE, Integrated RAMDAC, 512MB version 62.98.42.00.06.

I decided to have a dual monitor setup - so I went out and bought a brand new monitor and hooked it up with a DVI splitter with DVI to both monitors. The primary monitor has perfect color and resolution but the secondary monitor is green tinted. I have tried every single configuration of monitor settings possible whether directly on the monitor or thru NVIDIA control panel or troubleshooting, replaced all the cables, replacing the splitter, and even replacing the monitor with a different type of monitor.

No matter what configuration I use I will always end up with one green monitor and one normal monitor (the green will switch from the primary to the secondary depending on the configuration).

I tested the video card and it says it working fine and the driver is working.

So......now what? I'm about to just buy a new computer but now I just need to know what was the actual problem because its driving me crazy.
