new monitor connected via hdmi is off color

[mitchellbrianfox]

I have new 24 inch lcd monitor connected from my laptop HDMI port to the monitor's HDMI port. The problem i have is that the display images/screen is off color, in that the blue in the Windows 7 desktop theme is much more to the greenish side.. basically color is off.I have done calibration, and other adjustments in the nividia control panel and other graphics options. This hold true for whatever is on the screen.My other monitor connected to my laptop is thru VGA, and the color is correct. I connected this new Sceptre monitor to my other Windows 10 desktop via the HDMI port with the same result.. I understand this may have something to do with HDMI outputting as TV, rather than computer. Is what I am seeing normal behavior and is there any remedy for this? This is a sceptre 24 inch lcs monitor, i had the same problem with an AOC 21 incher that I have returned.

Have you tried using a different cord? It could be a bad cord.

- I swapped it with a new HDMI cable, same result. I tried both AOC and Sceptre on my windows 10 pc with 2 different cables - same result.

Since you have Nvidia drivers, open the Nvidia control panel. Under Display select Change Resolution. Find the box labeled “Output Dynamic Range” and change it to Full.

I solved my issue of the monitor being off colour through the Graphics control panel. Go to desktop, right click> Graphics properties> display>colour settings. Select your monitor. Go to advance and "enable" YCbCr.
