Question Laptop monitor colors washed out every time i start a game and needs restart from intel panel, any fix?

[Andrwalwaysontop]

I have an ASUS TUF F15 , never had problems since i bought it back in late 2022 until yesterday.So here comes the problem: i left the laptop on idle for a while and the laptop screen goes black as it should after some time. But suddenly when i turn it on, i notice that the colors of the monitor have changed , so as a normal guy would do , i restart the laptop aaand nothing, its the exact same.Then i check the drivers and windows update, all up to date. After quite some time i found out that restoring to original colors in the intel graphics command center fixed it, at least i thought so.Starting a game and the colors look washed again, i close the game and still the same, i restore the colors again in the intel panel and the colors are back. So my guess here is that the intel color profile is in conflict somehow with the dGPU.I have tried restoring the colors then restarting the pc , didn’t work, nothing works, i dont even have an option in nvidia control panel because its a laptop monitor.I have never had this problem until now , the games were always colorful and i don’t know what causes this saturation conflict.(CPU-intel i7 12700h, 16 gb ram, GPU-RTX3060) if anybody is willing to help, please

Are you able to send the display output to an external monitor? If so, does the problem continue with washed out colors?

Look in Update History and Reliability History/Monitor for any problem updates or errors codes, warnings, or evening informational events that occurred just before or at the time of the color "loss".

You can also try the built-in Windows troubleshooters. The troubleshooters may find and fix something.

Also try "dism" and "sfc /scannow" to find and fix any problem files.

Hopefully just some small glitch.

Tried what you’ve suggested, sfc repaired something .Also checked the hardware not to be faulty but found nothing. In the meantime i’ve reinstalled the intel drivers , at least now the pc boots with colors again without having me to restore them manually , but the main problem is still present. I’m just wondering if i should wait for a new driver from nvidia or should i make a fresh windows install?
