My laptop

[Xyrael]

Well, I'm leaving for the day to go to SF but... I go to check my laptop and I see.... nothing but grey. Literally all the colors are gone. If anyone's got any ideas why, I'd love to know, I'm betting this POS finally busted itself but yeah, if it's an easy fix that'd be great on the wallet.

edit: But when I reboot, the loading screen still has color, even the windows welcome screen. I get to the desktop and it's like a 1950's television.

I'd suggest checking if your graphics card is actually enabled or encountering any issues. If not, try starting in Safe Mode if it's available.

safe mode?

 

[Insanity]

:( You seriously never used a desktop computer? Some laptops with Windows have a Safe Mode like desktop comps.

i think he was suggesting that it was on safe mode.

 

[Insanity]

Ah, why does no one be concise? :(

 

[Xyrael]

Also there's a gunman on the highway and chips decided to close it so.... delays

Standard Californian traffic problems. In LA it was worse, I would see people get out of their cars and beat other people through their sunroofs while their cars were rolling down the highway unattended. Also, figured out the problem, for some reason or another the Digital Vibrance setting had been turned down to 1%, so all the colors were extremely muted. Been fixed.

Not sure what happened to gunman either, just heard on the radio there was something about it being the reason why the 580 or 101 were closed. Hmuh.
