MS Office Forum / Excel / Setup / June 2007excel 2003 starts and takes control of video appearance
When I start excel 03 the screen goes black momentarily then changes the screen color. My wallpaper and other program windows show in strange color combinations. When I close excel the screen goes black again and the screen reverts to its original settings What are your display settings (how many colours?) my settings: highest (32) bit true color 1024 x 768 75hz refresh > What are your display settings (how many colours?) So this doesnt happen with any other apps? I havent seen this for a while, used to happen when my old PC "ran out" of colours. Have you tried going down to 16 bit (just as an experiment). > my settings: > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > > What are your display settings (how many colours?) yes, I had the same thought as you. I tried 16 bit and there was no change. This is the only program including Word & Outlook that has this effect. I tried de-installing office 2003 and re-installing including cleaning the registry in between. This happened after I had to reinstall XP. I did not wipe the disk. Excel worked fine before this. > So this doesnt happen with any other apps? I havent seen this for a while, > used to happen when my old PC "ran out" of colours.
