I have a problem with my secondary monitor: I calibrated it with Windows Color Calibration, and I have the problem that it displays grey tones (like the grey background of the Stack Exchange code block) as white. All colors other than that seem normal.

Do I need to set any more preferences that may resolve this issue?

  • External monitor: PHILIPS 170S (1280 x 1024)
  • Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M
  • Connection: Graphics card HDMI out, HDMI to VGA converter, to Monitor

The issue is likely that model of computer monitor.

PCMag noted this in their review of the monitor.

Light-gray performance was weak, even after we adjusted the contrast settings.
