You can read my cpu specs below, but for those who cant, here it is:
3.2GHzP4
Gigabyte8IPE1000 Mobo
NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GS
3 GB Dual Channel(2x512mb/2x1GB)
SATA 250GB Seagate HD
And a *brand new* 22" LG LCD WS L226WT

So heres the issue. I picked up the new 22" on friday and hooked it up (DVI of course) installed the provided drivers, made a few manual adjustments, and things looked great in XP.
My next step was a game. I launched the C&C 3 Demo and played that. Things looked great, no issues.
After that, I ran BF 2142. I knew I had to manually enter my resolution of 1650x850 in the command line of my short cut (+menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1650 +szy 850)
The game launched, and i noticed its a bit stretched, and I know that widescreen isnt totally supported, so whatev.
I noticed the color was way off, the reds we very apparent, like the red [x] to quit was way red, before it was a bit orange. Its really apparent in Camp Gibraltor, which has a dry, orangy tint to the atmosphere. When I use the scope in the Zellar, which is a tint of red, I can barely make out peeps at a distance.
Weird huh?? I can see the monitor change when I click the icon too. It flicks a bit right before the app launches.
So if anyone has any clues, pass them on.. Its frustrating when I have a Nvidia 7800gs, DVI to a brand new 22" LG LCD.. all should be good.. but so far I only have problems with 2142. I havent played BF2 in a while.. so thats my next test.
Bungalow out.
