My screen turned bright yellow, tried looking on internet, tried all the tips. Finally figured it out, my power cable to the monitor had almost fallen out of the back of the monitor. All I did was push the cable back in and, voila, screen was fine.

Thank you! This worked perfectly for me. Windows updated and had a funky green cast to it.

I got all the way to the end where it says “Hit apply and than hit ok to save your changes”.
But the apply button isnt clickable so i dont know if the changes were made (I still have yellow screen)
