Im on a nVidia GeForce 6200, but i just cant get them to all even out properly :( cuz like the Macromedia Flash button is black :S its meant to be red! And how come in the display properties the line of the colours in colour quality is like that? Ok another new find, there is no red goin through my monitor :S

check if the plug is undamaged...

Another trick is to change the colour temperature of your monitor. IIRC, 6500K is rather redder than 9300K.

And you should also be able to set the colour balance on the monitor individually too.

is it flatscreen or CRT?

i fixed my CRT once when it kept warping into pink blue or yellow

Bingo, the plug that goes from Monitor to Drive was broken, there was a pin completely bent, thanks all for assistance :)
