Its a problem with the cable. It means theres a broken connection inside it - try wiggling the cable around a bit

not all monitors let you replace the cable in which case you need a new monitor :(

Not sure what has happened. Tried new cable and no joy so I put my old gforce 6200 turbocache back in and all colours ok.
I bought the 7600gt from ebay from a hong kong trader who is no longer an ebay member. Wouldnt advise anyone do do that I will go to a shop in future.
