LCD Color Corrector?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Tuesday February 14, 2006 @10:07AM from the hue-calibration dept.

colorContrast asks: " I've currently got a Viewsonic VG700b, and as of recent, it has been giving me some trouble. Instead of showing real black, i'm now getting a red hue for black, and the pixels on the screen have become more pronounced than they used to be. The odd thing is that when I brought my monitor home over vacation, the problem was fixed for a short while, but now it appears to be broken again. Does anyone have any suggestions on if its time to get a new LCD, or if they know of a fix for this problem? (I have attempted to manually correct it by changing the colors but that did little.)"

Have you tried using tinted sunglasses? It might be kind of awkward, but if you can find the right shade, it would be cheaper than replacing the screen :p
