Try and work this one out ! every morning when I switch on the computer I have been getting that colour trace back,when the screen-saver starts up the pictures just get muddy,so I decided to download the video card driver update once again despite it being the same version,anyway I over-wrote it and hey presto after re-booting it clears the problem,however next time I shut down and re-start the problem comes back and I have to go through the whole procedure again of downloading the same driver,re-booting and it is fine.
What can be the problem ? for some reason it does not appear to be holding the settings of the updated card.
Here is another pointer,when the screen goes muddy and I shut down to try and re-boot it just comes up with a load of hydroglyphics and the only way to get it to boot again is to pull the plug,wait 10 minutes and it will be ok except for the colours again,I then have to go through the procedure of downloading the video card driver again and it is fine,that is until tomorrow !
I seem to have been plagued with this graphics problem for some time now and its most annoying to keep having to reload every day.

***Well I am back again ! after a few days without a computer due to a gradual degradation of my system,just to give the results of this colour saga it has turned out to be the peripheral itself that was at fault and causing all of the problems,now with a brand new plasma screen I can view everything in glorious 19 inches of colour ! what a difference after peering at that tiny screen for all this time,I had no idea that the screen itself could have caused such a lot of problems,so to anyone else having similar problems in the future,before you blame the computer make sure that your screen is in serviceable condition.

*** It is the effect of that rippled water,plus the lettering is just right for the subject,with the black sub emerging it looks very realistic.
