Hi....

My Color Classic has always had a perfect screen.  No bleeding of colors, no off colors, just perfect in every way.

While I was running it today, I rebooted and it booted to a purple screen.  Everything worked, except everything had a purple shade to it.  I rebooted again and same thing happened.  I shut it down, then did a cold boot and same thing happened.

My logic board has just been re cap'ed and so has my analog board.  I do not have any extra boards to swap out.  I did drop in my older hard drive and that was not it.

After that, I took the case off to see if I had any loose wires or anything.  I found nothing visibly disconnected or not plugged in correctly.  I sure hope it is not my CRT.

Any suggestions on where to start looking for trouble?

Thanks in advance
