I would be very grateful if anybody can help me with this
problem. I moved my PC to another room. After it was
reassembled all worked as it should except the monitor
colours. I can only get blue and yellow but red is more of
a dark brown and green is is a dirty yellow. This has only
happened since the move and it worked perfectly before. I
thank in advance anybody who can help me. Yours sincerely
Terry Marshall.

Jarring and bumping can play havoc with a monitor. I would suggest you
examine the monitior cable very carrefully for a possible bent pin. Then
most monitors have settings on them. If you have your monitor manual look
for and perform those settings.

In addition to what others have suggested, is your display adapter
builtin to the motherboard or is it a separate card? If a separate card,
check that it didn't shimmy loose during the move and that it is firmly
seated in its slot.
