    Samsung 19" 933BW Display Problems (Yellow...)

    I don't know how to put it, but the entire LCD itself is just crap in comparison with the brand new one I just received. I didn't really notice it before I guess since I had nothing to compare it to, but the screen just is completely yellow-tinted and the monitor is not nearly as bright. Both of these monitors have the same contrast ratio as well. I've tried removing the Samsung Profile in Windows and rebooting but it still looks the same. Any profile I change the monitor to, it looks exactly the same. The resolution is fine at 1440x900 and everything appears exactly as it should with the exception of a tint of yellow and and it's dark. I've also tried 2 different DVI cables and both produce the same result. I've tried recalibrating with Samsung Natural Color Pro software and with the standard Windows recalibration, but both produce no change. Anyone have any idea what could be causing this? The monitor is about a year and a half old as well.

    Your panel is channeling a Aquos Quattro, obviously.

    Make sure windows installed the correct monitor/color device settings, first off. (If that's what you meant by Windows recalibration, disregard. I only know of the monitor profiles/"drivers.")

    You got the same I-INC that I got yea? Yours have any problems? Mine had a single stuck pixel....

    As for your old monitor, does changing the color values in the monitor's base menu change anything?

    The I-INC 25" that I got is absolutely perfect, no stuck pixels, no problems at all. Didn't have to even set a profile for it and it looks pristine. This older monitor though is just pretty crap in comparison... If I fiddle with the Gammas in the monitor's hardware menu then it does change, but it never looks right. The best I can do is lower the Contrast to almost 0 so that instead of yellow-tinted, it is just darker overall. I have them both set up atm, both running off my HD5750, the Samsung looks yellow, the I-INC looks perfect.
