Messed-up Graphics

Logged in to my computer this afternoon and the graphics are so messed-up. It's like the contrast level is turned way up. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thankyou.

Hardware info and more details would help!.

Did you reset the monitor if it is external?.

Have you hit/moved your PC?.

What graphics card do you have?.

Have you done a full system update or run DPKG per this guide?:

I had a similar issue with my nVidia GT620 - my mistake at the time was using some 'brightness control' - can't remember if it was in 'System Settings' or got installed after nvidia specific driver - I also downgraded from DVI and HDMI to VGA - no problems with VGA.

I can't even read the responses to my problem. It is only the internet that is messed up. Photos still look great and programs I use on the computer are good. When I connect to the internet the graphics are funky. Can you resend your responses as a private message so I can read them? Thank you.

Wolfman, can you send all those questions to me privately. i can kinda make out something about resetting my monitor? i got the message that says "Per your request" and then I click on the link and it takes me here where i can't make out what is asked. sorry for the trouble.

Hi,

I sent you a message with the questions posted above in a previous post???.

what graphics card do you have?.

Look here for Nvidia and AMD/ATI:

Do a full system update with this terminal /(Ctrl + Alt + t) command:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -f
