Barry, open door and trun key to get to menu. Under Diagnostics you can check your CRT color palette. Then under the Configuration tab and the Play Options tab your can change the background screen color. Hope this helps. I believe you may have to change the background color for all games individually.

I will give that a try - game was fine - haven't powered her up for months - had it sold - thats what usually happens - right.

Sounds like the loss of one color, check the neck board on the back of the monitor to make sure it's seated firmly.  If you had it repaired they usually remove the neckboard during repair, the original was glued on but when it's put back on most usually do not reapply the hot glue. 

If you moved the game around the neck board can come slighly off and can prodice the loss of one color.

Just a suggestion
