You saved my life!!! I have been struggling for over a week with a black and white screen, and I need to do graphic design on my laptop. After trying to find a solution in the settings area for hours, I contacted Windows help, and the woman told me to reinstall Windows. I would lose all my settings and apps. I backed up all my files because I just couldn’t afford to lose my files. But I still didn’t reinstall as I didn’t want to lose my apps, specially my VPN setup as it was a day before I leave for overseas. Now I googled and found the solution — windows+ctrl+c!!!! It worked!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!

thanks for help.

This happened to my iMac running Parallels Desktop and Windows 7. I fix it I followed the above instructions. I selected the Windows icon in the lower left corner of the screen. Then I selected the Settings icon just above it. Then I selected the Ease of Access button. Next I selected the Color and High Contrast button. Finally turned off the Apply Color Filter and the problem was solved! Thanks for the help!
