    Hi All,

    A quick question to yous wodering if anyone has experienced this.
    I have a dell monitor 1505FPp is the model as far as I can remember
    ; not that the model is important.

    Anyway situation is that I switched on yesturday and the scrren had a
    Self-Test Feature Check (STFC) on scrren.

    To get back to the normal display I removed cables and power etc., and
    then replaced. Then the display colours were all off.

    If I bring up the monitor menu then by pressing the monitor button the colours on the GUI for navagation are perfect but my display colours are all
    wrong.

    Graphic card staus in devicemanager is working properly and I have updated
    the driver.

    Anyone had this before or have an idea how to correct?

    Easiest test is to plug it into another PC. Try that. TBH it sounds more like you gfx card.

    i agree, does sound like graphics card, try updating the drivers first to see if your current drivers have been corrupted, then try the monitor on another pc

    Check to see if any of the pins on the ends of the vga cable are damaged
