Ok I have 3 displays
1. a 30 inch samsung hooked up through dvi
2. 25 inch Hp hooked up through dvi
3. a Projector

Now I always switch back and forth through my displays and I have never once had a problem but all of a sudden my projector only shows in a greyish tint. It shows no colors. Everything is hooked up fine because when I first log in the 2nd monitor will show full color but after a few seconds it goes right back to the graish tint.

So what do you guys think whats wrong with my pc now lol.

EDIT: Ok I figured out what was wrong with it but it doesnt make any sense on how I fixed it.
1. I brang up nvidia control panel
2. I went to adjust desktop color settings
3. I switched it from other applications control color settings to use nvidia settings
4. I adjusted the Digital vibrance. It was at 0 I placed it at 50 and then it looked great.

What outside application could have changed this???

There's a bug in NV's drivers where Digital Vibrance will sometimes get turned off. 50% is neutral/natural/correct, anything less than that reduces color saturation, and anything above that starts oversaturating.
