Default where has all the color gone ???


against my better judgement I downloaded sp2 on my compac 5000 computer. It
hasn't had any adverse effect on any programs so far. I do have 1 annoying
problem. when I am not using the computer and it go's on standby all the
colors on the desktop fade. I have a samsung syncmater997df monitor. Any
thoughts on where the color gos and how to fix it? If I reset the screen
resolution the color comes back until the next time the thing goes on
standby. You folks have helped before so thanks in advance

Bob S.

Why do you need colour in standby mode?

Have you tried updating your graphics drivers?
Also, update DirectX.
