When I operate my TomTom Go 540 Live from within TomTom Home (version 2.6.2.1586), the colours have all gone strange. Has anybody else seen this? If so, have you been able to fix it?

Could my default theme have become corrupted? If this is a case, whene can I get a fresh one?

That should have been "where", not "whene". I've probably drank too much wine...

Can you post a screen shot? Might help explain what you mean by strange?

I may have had something similar.

If you go to your desktop and right-click (on an open space) and go to Properties then Settings. In there you will see a box that says "Color Quality". If it is set at medium 16bit, change it to high 32bit.

It depends on what geraint means by "weird". Even with it set to 32 bit colour the colours aren't an exact match to those displayed on the screen of the unit and this is normal.

However if the colours are radically different then something (perhaps graphics drivers) is wrong.
