External monitor looks purple when connected to a R61

#1 Post by zdtechtv » Sat Jan 05, 2008 2:10 am

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.
"I've come a long, long way," she said, "and I will go as far,
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.
