    I have two PC running on one monitor both with Windows XP Pro. I have loaded each with the same Display parameters but one seems like it has a green haze filter over the theme color. Any hints?

    Hi joe645. The first thing that I would check would be to make sure that the monitor cables are plugged in properly and aren't lose on either computer. If you have verified the connection you can try updating the display driver on the computer thats experiencing the green tint and see if that makes any difference.

    If the main monitor is colour profiled the profile will also be applied to the second monitor and may show such an effect.

    My main flat screen is colour profiled for Photoshop work and the secondary screen - same make, but different model/size shows a slight colour cast. No big issue as it's only used for PS palettes, etc.

    Pete, he is using two computers & sharing a monitor. Each comp will have its own color profile. He must be using a KVM switch.
