Black and White colors?

Anyone know a way to make a windows xp display black and white instead of in color? I'd want all applications to be black and white as well. I wasn't sure which forum to put this in(os, software, video, etc) so I put it here.

Sounds like an office prank... You can do that in the control panels for ATI and nVidia cards.

I looked there, couldn't find it... maybe i need a new driver?

No, it's not for a prank.
 
Set your R, G, and B values to 0 in the color settings of your monitor?

Nevermind, apparently that only works on TVs...
 
We've got a graphics application here at work(internally developed by another group) that doesn't do black and white. So to do black and white we have to read the whole display buffer in, do pixel operations to get it to black+white, then write it back out. The end product is too choppy from this reading/manipulating/writing the buffer... so if we could make the display just black + white we wouldn't have to worry about this 🙂

edit: forgot to mention it's doing all that at 40 hertz... so it's costly 🙂
