Please help, Monitor has a red hue.

[pirred908]

I have a Samsung 191T+ powered by a Radeon 9200. My monitor is connected to the video card using the Analog and Digital connection cable (the blue 15-pin and DVI connector). In analog mode the color is crystal clear, but in digital mode the monitor has a dark red hue. Any ideas? Please help. Thank you.

BTW, I just moved and this only started happening after I set up the computer in my new house.

This probably has nothing to do with the real cause for the problem and most likely won't help a bit ..... but its worth a shot 🙂. I have an analog monitor and it would turn to shades of blue when the power cable for my computer was resting on top of the monitor's cable. I put the monitor's cable off to the side and away from most of my other cables and its working fine. Like i said, that probably won't help, but it can't hurt to try it.

Try disconnecting the VGA cable altogether and see if it still does this.

I powered everything down, completly disconnected the VGA and I'm still haveing the problem. Should I contact Samsung? Or do you have another idea?

could be the video card

It could have something to do with the color temperature. Go in the setup and check the color temperature while in DVI mode and make note of it, then check the color temperature in VGA mode. You can't adjust color temp in DVI mode on that monitor (I used to own one) but you can in VGA mode, so try switching to all the colour temperatures while in VGA mode to see if you can replicate the problem.

I remember on my 191T both the brightness and colour temp were locked in DVI mode at levels that I wish I could have adjusted.
