Pavilion 15 Notebook Monitor has blue tint

Hi, my 2.5 months old laptop has a blue tint since 3 days. Initially it starts ok but after a few seconds the desktop and any other programs have a blue tint. Color calibrating doesn't work. Initially the colour changes when I move the colour tab of the calibrating colour but let it go the colour is the same as before. Thanks for your help

I've read this thread http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=T_Series_Thinkpads&thread.id=30, but I don't see 'Intel Flash Cache Logic Chip' option under Storage controller in the Device Manager.

Please advise.

My T61 LCD monitor has blue tint background

I just got my new T61 unit with wxga+ LCD monitor two days ago, but I found the LCD monitor has blue tint background. What this means is: whenever I view a webpage or any software interface that has white background, the white color is not pure white, instead it is blue-ish white - blue tint.
I wonder if this is normal for T61 LCD monitor (wxga+)?
Thank you!
Tony

Blue Tint Started after I set up TV monitor: dual g5 2.0Ghz

Machine: Dual 2GHz PowerPC G5 10.4.6 with Lacie Electron Blue 22 connected to it. ATI Radeon 9650 Driving it.
Problem: It was working fine. Now it has blue tint (haze) to it. It looks like somebody put a piece of blue plastic wrap in the front of the entire screen. When I restart, it will appear neutral white (normal) and then after "a while" it goes to the blue tint and it pretty much stays that way.
What I did recently that MAY have caused the problem: I attached my TV - 37 inch lcd - via a DVI-D cable, messed around with it, got the lacie and the TV mirrored... things worked fine. Better than fine, wonderful. Disconnected the TV, messed with the display settings, then the blue thing happened later (not immediately after disconnecting tv).
How I know that it is not the monitor (hardware): Because the monitor is shared via a KVM between the G5 and my linux server. There is no tint when I switch over to the linux server. I also eliminated KVM problems by trading cables between the g5 and the linux box and the behavior on the G5 was exactly as described above. This kvm thing worked fine for nearly 6 months and it would be quite a coincidence anyway if it went bad while i was hooking up the TV to the G5. Right now I am typing this through a bluish tint on the G5 and there is no tint when I switch to the linux box (likewise, the TV looks fine right now).
Things I have tried: Changing color profiles, restarting umteen times, switching dvi ports on cards, removing tv monitor, etc. I've tried a bunch of things, but of course I may have overlooked something.
I did try to calibrate the monitor at some point in all this mess, but even if I messed something up, when I switch to other color profiles, it still happens.
I feel like it must be something to do with the software. I just don't get it.
I need some help, I've got to do some photography work on the G5 and I cant do it when my white balance is blue!
2Ghz G5 see text Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Solved.
The problem turned out to be the kvm switch (for those that care it is an iomega gcs632U). This is the second one that has broken. I would not recommend this switch. The first time it was something different.
When I tested it, it must have been behaving erratically and worked fine during the test.

How do i clean the air vents on my hp pavilion dv6 notebook pc?

Latelly, the fan on my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC has been noiser than usual and it appears that my notebook becomes quite warm to the touch. The HP Support Assistant running on my notebook PC recommended that I can reduce the heat and fan noise by cleaning the air vents. How do I do this? Can I do this myself or do I have to have a professional do it?

Hi Rosie,
You can clean the vents on your notebook.
Buy a can of compressed air. Essentially, you need to gently blow out the vents with the compressed air to clear out the dirt and dust. You need a can with a small straw like attachment for the nozzle so you can point it directly toward the vents.
Do take a look at this document first so you know which way to point the air and how to avoid damaging the fan inside the notebook.

External Monitor Has A Blue Tint

I've had my iMac for about 4 years and I just hooked up an external monitor.
I bought the monitor a good while ago and it has been basically sitting in a closet for a few years.
Just bought a Mini-DVI to VGA adapter and when I hook the monitor up, there's a blue tint which I am assuming because the red is not coming through.
When I adjust the color settings, there is no difference in color from when the red is set at 0 and when it is set at 100.
At first I thought it might be the monitor because it's old and has been passed around to a few people but then I noticed the menu for the monitor is showing red hues just fine.
To test this out, I hooked my netbook up to the monitor and the picture looks just fine.
Any ideas?

Do you get this after switching users? This is something that intermittently happens to me on my MacBook after switching users. Restarting is the only thing I have found which fixes that issue however, so I don't know if it's related.
I would imagine it to be a software issue rather than hardware. I would try repairing permissions, resetting PRAM and SMC. If that fails then an Archive & Install would be my next move.

Images opened in Photoshop CS5 has a blue-tinted grayscale

I was using Photoshop CS5 (64-bit) fine yesterday but today each image I open shows a loss of colour, everything looks like a blue tinted grayscale.
The same with RAW files oipened in ACR and all files opened in Bridge.
When I open a JPEG version in Microsoft Image Viewer the colour is fine.
In Windows, the thumbnails look fine with full colour in the folders.
The loss of colour only happens when the image files are opened in Photoshop, Bridge and ACR.
Anyone out there who can help?
Many thanks.

Many thanks to Silkrooster, Alec Molloy & Chris Cox, for all your help and time.
Just for info - the Huey Pro calibrator has worked well with this monitor (Dell U2410) for at least a couple of years now.
I tried old profiles created previously using the HueyPRO but they did not work, so I deleted them from the System32/spool/drivers/color folder.
Then a new HueyPRO-created monitor profile did not work, so I deleted that as well.
Then at start up, the HueyPRO seemed to auto-create its own monitor profile which it named: "hueyPRO Dell U2410 F525MOA70DKL.icc"
But that gave the same loss of colour when opening files in Photoshop
So I think Chris is exactly right - the problem must be with the HueyPRO "cigar" hardware, or with its software, so I may well have been bothering you all unnecessarily.
I'll try getting a new hueyPRO - but not too common in the shops here in central Africa.
In the meantime, I've uninstalled HueyPRO and I'm using a reference image to calibrate using the NVIDEA Control Panel (I'm working on a commission for two photo calendars at the moment and so have to keep it going....).
Any recommendations on a better calibrator (but a non-too technical one!)??

HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC won't play blu-ray anymore

HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC used to play blu-ray discs. it had been a while since i have tried to play one and my computer has, no doubt, updated countless times since.
when i load a blu-ray disc the HP DVD player starts, and there is a black screen which says 'loading' and to press play. pressing play does not start the disc. it used to ask me if i wanted to check for updates, but selecting 'yes' never seemed to find any, and selecting 'no' just brought you back to the same place.
i have tried downloading the sp50935 DVD update to fix the problem, but when installing i get a message that says the 'install has been stopped due to an unsupported operating system' (to that effect), but i use Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Service Pack 1, the same that came installed when purchased.
any ideas?

Hi jim_douglas,

HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC hdmi port to hp monitor stopped working

I have a HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC (processor: AMD A8-455m APU w/ Radeon HD Graphics) and for the past year been using it with an external HP 20wm monitor by way of HDMI to VGA cord. On March 1st 2015 I turned on my laptop and monitor and it could not find the external monitor. On the monitor it stated no connection found and monitor went to sleep. The cord and monitor work with my sons laptop so I know they're not the problem. Went to Screen Resolution and tried to detect and nothing. Having rolled back the driver (7600G) and no difference I updated it back again. I took the computer back to a restore point on Feb 26th and the outcome was the same it does not work. I would appreciate any help that can be put forward so this issue can be resolved.
Thanks,
Tom

HP Pavilion external monitor has stopped working with my Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) with OSX 10.8.3

HP Pavilion external monitor has stopped working with my Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) with OSX 10.8.3. When I purchased the monitor a few weeks ago it worked perfectly when computer was in clamshell mode or with lid open. Now external display has stopped working. When I turn on display it scans for signal but does not find it and then immediately goes into sleep mode. I am using a DVI connection with the adapter for the mini display plug. REALLY FRUSTRATING. Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Hi lancekatigbak,
If you're having issues with the display out on your MacBook Pro, you may want to take a look at the troubleshooting steps in the following article:

What can i do about my iphone that has a blue tint to the screen when i have sunglasses on?

That sounds like an issue with the sunglasses and possible polarization...there is nothing that you can do to offset that on the iPhone itself.

Please Help.. HP Pavilion DV6 Notebook has totally stopped working

Hi
If anyone can help me I would be grateful. My computer just stopped working today and left me with a blank screen, when I try to turn on I just get the HP logo. I have run a hard disk and memory test and they both came back OK.
I have my life on here and when I took it to the Geek Squad they said it was probably the hard drive and wanted tons of money to TRY and fix it.
I have a blank black/blue page, I have removed the battery and tried a hard start, I replaced the battery, I do have a flashing caps lock light and my mouse pad is illuminated.
I don't know what to do next and have my life on this computer including many family photos that cannot be replaced.
Any help or ideas would be gratefully received
Thanks

Blue tint

hi there i have a dv7-7332ea and i noticed after comparing images with my partners hp desktop that the screen has a blue tint just slight but when trying to edit photos it makes a huge difference , i looked at the monitor settings in control pannel and it says that it is a generic pnp monitor and not its make etc i have tried reinstalling the graphics drivers and it still shows this, has anyone created a profile to correct this issue or has a way of solving it, as im stumpped , i have tried colour correction through the intel control pannel but its just not getting the correct result
confussed.com
any help would be greatly appreciated

Good Morning @ddave_1985 ,
Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help.
I see that your display is exhibiting a blue tint when compared to your friends desktop monitor. You tried adjusting the color through the Intel Control panel but it remained unchanged. You tried reinstalling the graphic drivers but it did not help.
Have you done all your Windows updates?
Has it always had the blue tint or is it a recent change?
Have you made any recent changes to your notebook?
Have you ran the HP Support Assistant to aid with HP updates ?
Have you tried using the Windows troubleshooter ?
Here is a link to the HP ENVY dv7-7332ea Notebook PC Drivers. You will need to select your Operating System and click next to display the recommended drivers and updates for your notebook. Please ensure they have all been updated.
Here is a link to Display Quality Issues that will guide you through some adjustments to help overcome this difficulty.

LED display has blue cast compared to 23" LCD display

Just purchased the 27" LED Cinema display. It is side by side with my 23" LCD display. The colors are dramatically different. Is there some way to calibrate the new 27" monitor so that it has the same appearance as the 23" LCD or is the technology so different that they will never really look similar? I have a Mac Pro 2 X 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon.
thanks
russ

Yes, they do frequently have blue tints which cannot be calibrated out. I had to return two of them because of the problem and eventually just got my money refunded. I was told that Apple Engineering had no fix other than to suggest using a professional calibrator system which would almost certainly have done no good. I'd suggest you return the Thunderbolt display for refund and buy a different brand or wait until Apple releases a new generation of displays, whenever that happens.

Display color bug "blue tint" color issue

I've been all too familiar with the color bug since the first week i got my led macbook pro.. back then i was using fast user switching, and noticed it.. then did some research leading to the dmproxy fix, that tuaw wrote up an applescript for. http://www.tuaw.com/2006/03/29/fixscreen-applescript-to-fix-fast-user-switching- color-bug/
this worked for a long while... even through the leopard upgrade that I had hoped would solve it. I had to reinstall for an unrelated issue and since she doesn't use mine anymore i never set up an account for my girlfriend this time. so.. no user fast switching.. I thought i wouldn't even come across this problem again... but..
after getting back from my christmas vacation I notice that now that it has my external display hooked up the same thing happened. perhaps it happened earlier and i didn't catch it.. but either way, the same symptoms.. bad color, blueish tint, too cool,.. etc. etc.
Now when I try to run dmproxy, it wouldn't run.. i chalked this up to different location in leopard and found dmproxy. ran it.. and nothing.. so I go to my display sys prefs.. and attempt to calibrate the display.. it acts really funny,.. in that when the initial window comes up that has the checkbox for expert mode.. if i click that and then go to the next step.. as soon as i do, the screen changes profiles and look ten times worse.. and i'm unable to complete the calibration because nocorrect settings can make it look normal.. it has extreme tints.. if i go all the way back to the first window, it goes back to the original slightly off color.. if i try with out expert mode.. it doesn't look any better when done.. but it does give me a calibration file.
restarting, shutting down aren't doing anything.. and It is far enough off to be very bothersome.. is there an updated fix for leopard? anyone else come across this.. i don't want to have to go to the apple store.. please help.

I get the blue tint after my MBP wakes from screen saver, and I also have an external monitor attached. The blue tint only happens on the MBP screen, not the ext monitor. It only happens when I have the external monitor connected.
This may be a bit early to declare a fix for this issue, because I don't think I have permanently, but here's what worked for me today. In the Display Preferences, I had created a new Display Profile for the external monitor. I switched it back to the default profile (in my case Dell 2007FP), and activated the screen saver. When I stopped the screen saver, no blue tint on the MBP screen. Switched back to my custom Display Profile and repeated the process. No blue tint. Hmmm... Now I can't get the blue tint to come back after numerous attempts, when before I could reproduce it at will.
Give it a try and let us know if it works for you too.

HP Pavilion dv9825nr Notebook PC not working

Hi..Please help!!!!!!!!!
I have an HP Pavilion dv9825nr Notebook PC, with Windows Vista, in dire need of help. My computer stopped working a couple of days ago. I keep getting an error message on blue screen that says a problem has been detected and Windows have been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
If this is the 1st time that you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed. If this is a new installation ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any windows updates you might need.
If problems continue disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Start Up options, and then select safe mode.
Btw, my battery went dead so I replaced it an new one by a company named Anker. It's a 14.4V. It's identical to the one that HP provided so I thought. At any rate, I just inserted the new battery after one day in my computer and the next day I received the message above.
Can someone please help me fix my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Karen

Try to disconnect the battery and plug unit up to AC power and see if you still get the blue screen
