Color is all messed up....help

On my Dell Monitor the color is basically B/W at this point, if I press the right button of the four buttons on the front of the monitor to adjust the color and scroll around to the SRGB, 6500, 9300 or Recall Buttons the color is fine, but it will not all me to set either of those options.  Any help would be appreciated....Thanks

    Nicklaus86,

    Here is some information I got from the online manual for this monitor that may help in setting the monitor.

     

    sRGB:
    The term sRGB stands for " standardized Red, Green and Blue" color space. When selecting "sRGB", the brightness and contrast controls will be automatically adjusted to a preset condition.

    Using sRGB color space means that any calibrated monitor in a system which can accept sRGB should display the image with the same color balance as the original file, ensuring consistency of presentation. When selecting "sRGB", the brightness and contrast controls will be automatically adjusted to a preset condition.


    6500/9300:
    Color temperature is a measure of the 'warmth ' of the image colors (red/green/blue). The available range is between 6500 to 9300K.The two available presets (9300 and 6500) favor blue and red accordingly. Select each one to see how each range suits your eyes, or utilize the 'User Color' option to customize the color settings to your exact choice. The selected Color temperature ICON will be highlighted in Yellow.

         

     


    User Color (Red/Blue)

    If the 9300K normal white or 6500K warmer white do not satisfy your desire, properly adjust R and B GAIN controls to obtain your optimum whiteness level.

    Thanks, I had looked in the manual...my point is that if I select Recall, 6500,9300 or sRGB, they all restore the color to my monitor, but it will not last on any of them, it returns to a yellow, b/w looking color.
