so bloody simple when you know how! Toggle it on and off with Win Ctrl C. <br />
I've marked you both as &quot;Assisted Solution&quot;. Not immediately obvious how to &quot;close&quot; the question and share the points...<br />

Thankyou chaps.

I unwittingly hit some unintended key combination two days ago which sent the display into monochrome. <br />
<br />
I've no idea what I did other than I think it was at least one key bottom left &nbsp;(CTRL, FN, WINKEY,ALT) and at least one other which could have been anywhere. <br />
<br />
I can find absolutely no references in any of the manuals which point to any key combination (or anything else) which will switch the laptop into monochrome display mode and, consequently, no clue how to get back to normal.<br />

Suggestions welcome

Laptop (Tosh Portege) accidentally switched to Monochrome. Can't get it back to Colour. Suggestions?

A monitor or a display is an electronic visual display for computers, usually comprised of the display device, circuitry, casing, and power supply. The display device in modern monitors is typically a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) thin panel, while older monitors used a cathode ray tube (CRT) about as deep as the screen size. They are connected to the computer via VGA, DVI, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, LVDS or other proprietary connectors and signals.

Displays / Monitors

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
