How to Adjust Colors on an LCD Monitor

When viewing images on an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) monitor, the images should be crisp and clear and the colors should be rich and vibrant. Typically, setting the LCD monitor colors to its native resolution (the LCD monitor's initial display setting provided by the manufacturer) should provide the optimal image. However, if the native resolution setting is not delivering the best appearance, the LCD monitor settings can be easily calibrated to enhance the screen's appearance.

Adjust LCD Monitor Resolution

1.Turn on the computer. Wait for the main screen to appear.

2.Ensure that no other programs are running.

3.Move the cursor over "Start" (or the Microsoft Windows logo) from the lower left hand corner of the screen, single click, and hold the mouse button down to view other menu items.

4.Select "Control Panel."

5.Locate the heading, "Appearance and Personalization," then select the sub-category, "Adjust screen resolution."

6.Click "Resolution" and wait for a drop-down slider control to appear.

7.Drag the slider up or down until the desired resolution is selected. Click "Apply." If a compatible resolution was chosen, the screen will revert to these settings (If the resolution is incompatible, select another resolution).

8.Wait for the system to ask if the settings are acceptable. Select "yes" if the settings are accurate, otherwise continue changing the resolution until the desired effect is achieved.
