I was working in Bootcamp on Windows. Screen changed from millions of colors to 16 color or something horrible.

I rebooted into OS X, looked fine, then changed to 16 color. I have re-installed OS X Leopard and still 16 color.

The external connection works fine when connected to an external monitor.

Any suggestions on how to fix this would be great, as my warranty is out, and I don't want to have to buy a new logic board at almost $1000.

Thanks,

Brian

I just had a similar problem, driving me nuts. Don't know if it will work for your too, but if you open System Preferences, Click on Universal Access, there is a contrast slider that will "enhance contrast" aka turn your screen to 16 colors. Sliding it from Maximum to Normal should get you back to where you want to be. Hope it works for you!
