When ever I connect my ThinkPad R61 to an external monitor the external monitor looks purple. I have tried several different monitors including a projector.
Is this a driver/software issue or a hardware issue? Has anyone had this problem before?
Thanks

I suspect a cable problem if you tested all the external monitors and projectors with a single cable.

With the man who takes me from my horse, and leads me to a bar."
The man who took her off her steed, and stood her to a beer,
Were a bleary-eyed Surveyor and a DRUNKEN ENGINEER.
