Colour Calibration

[Smigz0r]

Hello there. I made an overclockers account specifically for this problem as I'm sure you guys can help me out

Well I recently upgraded my GPU to an ATi Radeon 4850 HD, all is working fine except for this strange colour distortion.
Some things seem to be tinted green, and when I try to remedy the problem via the ATi software itself or Windows own software, I turn the green slider down and everything becomes red. I turn the red slider down and it all goes blue. Blue goes down, back to green, and so on!

I have tried every combination possible and I just cannot get it to sit perfect.
Here are a few pictures I took of World of Warcraft and one of Steam, to show the colour distortion.

These were all taken while the computer's colour setting were on what it deems to be "default"

So is it my graphics card? My monitor? What's going on?! D:

Stressed and annoyed I have turned to you guys, so any help is extremely appreciated, thank you

Are you able to test that monitor on a different machine? Even a laptop will be fine but I suggest you get a single picture to test with that shows the issues you are having on your setup and then try the monitor on a different machine.

What colour profile is your monitor using? Manufacture supplied, windows or maybe even an Adobe?

Are you connected via HDMI or DisplayPort?
If so (worth trying for other connections too, I guess), remove the cables from both monitor and card, and plug them in again.
Sometimes if the cable isn't connected properly you get a picture, but the colour is shifted.

Also, there's a setting in catalyst somewhere (possible in HDTV tab) about colour type, where options are RGB or Ysomething. Make sure its set to one of the RGB options.
(I know that's not that fantastically helpful - I cant remember the layout and I dont have the option on my current monitors.)
