  1. Why does my desktop background turn purple?


    Every day for the last week now, my desktop background slowly gets taken over by a solid purple/lavendar color. It starts in the selection box around any icons I click, and eventually spreads to the whole screen. Some days by 5:00 the actual background starts coming back again just like the purple did. I have 2 screens, and both are acting identical in this.

    :)
