Has this only just started happening ?
Which OS are you using ?
Maybe if you drop the refresh or try different ones that may help.
Does it correct itself after its been running for a few minutes or does it stay with a pink tint ?

Welcome aboard by the way   :)

This happened to a friend of mine only theirs had a green tint.    Turned out to be a bad connection with the monitor lead -- might be worth checking it out.
Many thanks to all our members, who have made PC Pals such an outstanding success!   :thumb:

Has happened to me in the past - use the degaus button (I think thats how to spell it!) - usually the button, or onscreen menu is of a magnet - this makes your monitor judder for one second then all will be fine.

Hope that helps
