I recently bought a new desktop with a NVidia GeForce 7900 GTX 512MB GDDR3 (Dual DVI -HDTV) graphics card (refurbished) and a new Acer S243HL 24 inch LED monitor (brand new).

The images and videos etc are fine however the text on the screen appears to have a red tint to it as if the colour calibration or something is out of focus. Could this be a graphics card issue or is it something to do with the screen?

Ive also noted that when I zoom in or make the text appear larger that this issue seems to fade slightly. How can I set the required text size in Windows 7 64 bit?

In Windows 7, do you have the resolution set at 1920 x 1080?

Yes I have it at 1920 x 1080 (as recommended) and Windows 7 does recognize my monitor as Acer S243HL.
