Dear All,
I am just about to go mad, so hopefully, I can tell you what is happening before it happens!
Ever since I have had my Acer Aspire X3990 PC with an Acer S243 22" monitor (widescreen), everything has worked really well, with NO problems with the graphics (Windows 7 Home Edition 64-bit). Then I get a message from Drive Booster (I believe, because I did not take much notice of it at the time), that the graphics driver (Intel HD Graphics running on a 2nd Generation Intel Core i5 and 8 Gb of memory) is now out of date and it should be renewed. I set that going, and at first, everything appeared to be okay, but a short time later, I used Eudora 7, my email program, and the colors were just awful - rather like a psychedelic nightmare.
After a while, I found Graphics Properties by right-clicking on a discolored part of the screen, and that showed me that the color had dropped to 8-bit. A drop-down menu showed that I could select 16-bit and 32-bit color as well, so I chose the last option and everything returned to normal.
However, as soon as I chose another part of Eudora, the awful colors returned so I returned to the Graphics Properties, changed the 8-bit showing to 32-bit, and everything returned to normal.
Now I could describe each and every time I repeated this, but it now amounts to hundreds of times, and I AM GETTING RATHER FED UP WITH THIS CONSTANT CHANGING OVER BACK TO 32-BIT.
Can anyone help me with this problem?
Regards,
