- My friend has an A1200 which is showing purple WB screens (which should
- be showing up grey). Any other programs also have a purple tinge to them
- while running. He's just brought the machine to my place to try it on my
- monitor and its still purple, so we know that the screen and the cable
- aren't the problem. We've also checked the palette and it was set up the
- same as mine.
-
- There are also some strange bars showing up on the screen. They usually
- will show up over light colours and are light green. Moving the mouse
- pointer causes them to kind of fluctuate...
-
- For some temporary relief, we found that adjusting the GREEN level up in
- the palette has made things the correct colour again.
-
- SO chances are its a hardware problem.
-
- What could it be? Lisa chip? Alice chip? What else could cause the RGB to
- screw up like that?
-
- Any help would be appreciated!
