Sounds like a video driver issue, can you post the display portion of your dxdiag file?

please accept my humble apologies, am a complete idiot. Suddenly thought to myself video, nvidia control panel, clicked on the video colour settings while dream was on i altered the hue, low and behold colour back to normal, a simple case of altering the hue setting in the nvidia control panel. So thank you all for your patience and sorry for any inconveniance caused.
