Windows 10: Monitor tinted neon green

Hi all,Recently, i’ve had an issue with my monitor. My monitor seems to be tinted a very bright, neon green, making it almost impossible to see the content on it. My problem began when my monitor randomly froze things were still moving, however i held no control over it, and I restarted my PC to fix it. Upon starting my PC, I was greeted with the aforementioned neon green tint. During startup, the monitor properly displays the colors, as the acer and motherboard logos all are the correct colour. It is only when the PC fully starts up that the problem begins. The fact that the monitor properl

green tint

My screen is displaying a green tint. I swapped out the wire, still having the same issue. I followed multiple suggested steps I found in a similar forum. I even tried a few youtube videos. I don't know what to do. The computer functions normal, it just
has an awful green tint. Any suggestions?

 

Monitor has a green tint

Hi,

Sometimes, my screen just randomly starts having a green tint. If I activate night mode and instantly deactivate it again, the tint is gone. If I disable TrueType, the tint doesn't appear anymore. But obviously, without TrueType, text looks crappy. Is there
any solution to this without having to disable it?

 

ThinkVision X1 causing green tint on all other displays

Hello,

I am a very tech savvy person, and this strange issue is really bothering me. I hope someone experienced can help.

The following are my equipment:

• Laptop 1: HP Elitebook 840 G6 (can plug 2 external displays via HDMI and USB-C)
• Laptop 2: Lenovo Ideapad Y700 (can plug 1 external display via HDMI)
• External monitor 1: Dell E2318H (via laptop’s USB-C port, to monitor’s DP port, via converter)
• External monitor 2: Dell E2318H (via laptop’s HDMI port, to monitor’s VGA port, via converter)
• External monitor 3: Lenovo ThinkVision X1 [60E2-GAR1-WW] (via laptop’s HDMI port, to monitor’s VGA port, via converter)

Points to note:

• I often only use the two Dell monitors to connect either of my laptops. And they never had any issues.
• Colour settings on the Dell monitors are checked and carefully set.
• Recently I decided to connect my HP laptop to the ThinkVision X1 monitor, via the HDMI ports. That worked fine without any issue.
• I did not manually install any monitor drivers. All 3 monitors were used as plug-and-play, using Windows default drivers.
• There is no issue whatsoever on the laptop's inbuilt displays - so lets completely ignore those.

The issue arises when I now plug any other display on the HDMI port of the HP laptop (since plugging the X1): the full display from Windows has a blue-green tint (note: the tint is obviously not on the monitor's OSD menu). Essentially
no Red is being displayed, and any calibration would still not show Red. See attached photos. The tint is strong, even though it doesn't look like much in the photos

The same monitor on the USB-C port works normally, and switching the other Dell monitor on to this HDMI port still shows the green tint. Checked and changed the cable as well, no luck. Completely uninstalled/reinstalled all monitor and VGA drivers, still
no luck.

In my early troubleshooting steps, I did the mistake of plugging the X1 to my Y700 laptop. So now even that has a green tint.

The strange part is, the green tint (or blue tint? aqua?) is not showing when I plug in the X1 again. So it is obviously not a cable or port issue.

Searching on Google points to a colour profile misconfiguration, but playing around with it did not change anything. But I must note that I am not familiar with colour profile settings, so I may have missed something here, although it is unlikely.
