External Monitor WASHED OUT PALE UNSATURATED FADED Colors FIXED

If the colors on your PC or laptop's connected external monitor appear faded, unsaturated, or pale, it is likely that there is an issue with certain settings on your device.

In this video, I will share with you how I encountered a similar problem with my Acer Nitro VG272U 27" external monitor that had very strange colors and how I have troubleshooted and fixed it.

Hope you find it helpful!

Thank you! I have a different monitor and a different fix but I found it by going into the preferences; display. So you still lead me there. For me I clicked off the "high dynamic range" box.

Wow, very interesting, I didn't know Windows had an HDR switch in the Display Settings, thank you!

[engineeringcanada]

So nice, thanks for explaining why this happened. You would think, Windows should switch back to SDR as soon as you select any other move than HDR on you monitor. Good troubleshooting technique😊

You have my most formal way of appreciation, a video you made have saved my entire day's mood, search for solution for hours and was slowly loosing it. Tysm! ❤

[thejunglegod]

dear God! Thank you thank you!. i thought playing on HDR mode made my monitor burn and fade out. You've saved me so much money :)

[Epicwallpaperstwitter]

I had this issue in reverse. My HDR would look super washed out

[jeeshuroy]

Thank you !! I had the same issue but my HDR was already turned off. i had to change some settings in my nvidia control panel and it worked.

[shortstackz]

thank you so much i tried everything and this is the only tutorial that helped

Bro you are goated I literally opened up warzone and after that the my screen got that grey tint ever since thank you for this video

[Ryder_Darling]

I had a similar issue but my monitor had an 'eye saver' mode that just made the entire screen look like it has a fog screen over it. Turned it off and all good again. Just commenting in case someone else has this issue.

If you have Nvidia control panel, you can go there and then to (adjust desktop colour settings) and change your colouring there. that helped for me.

[Ali_H]

thank you very much, you don't know how i was suffering with these colors ❤❤❤❤

[Bmxmusikian]

I dont have HDR available...it was fine until I installed official Nvidia driver for 4080 Super, now all the colours and brightness is all weird, peoples skin looks weird colours and stuff, no idea what to do

[ontheroad]

I prefer, diag life time troubleshooting vids, insted of making high end edeted tutorials. Great 👍 stuff!

[sliczxfn]

Your literally amazing, I thought my monitor just only looked good in hdr mode and the others were bad. THANK YOU

[JT]

Thanks, this helped me. Step 3 was the issue and I have no idea how it was enabled. I was spamming my really clicky keyboard to annoy my friend and this toggled on somehow

[zir]

Thank you, for me it was the refresh rate that wasn’t set to max so gave a washed out look.

Now I need to figure how to do it for my PS5

[grxryder]

you're a champ man! I was so frustrated about this, absolutely solved my issue!
