    FML. Got home early bells and tried it. No suck luck chuck :-(
    Uninstalled and re-installed 260.99.
    Still b&w....

    Have posted on AV forums, over clockers etc etc, hopefully someone out there will have encountered this issue before.

    :( damn, struggling to think of anything else tbh, avfourms is a good place to ask, if anyone can think of solution good chance the ppl there will :)
    btw did you have a chance to tinker (or have a peek at the tv internal settings?)

    Had a poke around the on-screen settings menu, but was just slider for colours and stuff and they all seemed normal.
    The flip side of sanity is the game.
  • Sounds very much like your TV and graphics card are using different display systems (NTSC vs. PAL) as a few posters have already said.

    But why would that randomly change, the pc and tv have worked together perfectly for 2 years now, that's the frustrating bit.
    Plus I don't see any pal/ntsc settings on the samsung menu

    thats the thing i cant see any option like that in control panel

    in control panel maybe try going to change resolution/ then click customise (maybe try ticking show 8-bit and 16-bit resolutions) and try entering in the desired resolution but maybe at different hz?
    or try doing colour depth 16-bit
    but i have feeling you already tried tinkering around there
