Colors displayed incorrectly

I am using a VisionTek Radeon 9550 AGP graphics cards. At the character select screen and inventory screen it looks like my Elementalist is wearing blue. But in game it looks like she is wearing white and she seems to have a glow. Any one else have this problem or know how to fix it? My best guess is updated drivers would help (I have no idea what version my driver is).

Download the ATI 6.1 Catalyst drivers and try it.

Just tried that and it made no difference. Some places my ele's clothing looks blue, other places its white with a slight glow.

those incorrect colors only appear while playing GW?
if not, it maybe a hardware problem.
have you tried reinstalling the program too?

also, try changing your graphic detail settings.
perhaps there are some features which the card can't handle.

Its only GW, and as far as I can tell its only the elementalist's clothing. I'm only in pre-searing with her...maybe it'll go away in post.

I tried some different detail settings and they made no difference (still not showing up as blue in the game). It may be some lighting feature the graphics card cant handle correctly, but changing the settings seemed to make no difference.

For some reason the 'shinyness' isn't applied on the inventory screen nor the logon screen..

For example, my warrior's Crimson Carapace shield is dyed light red (tried to make it pink but bleh), and it looks almost black, very dark red in the inventory screen. But really in game, the shield looks light red.

Same thing with Guild Cape, looking at the cape at Guild Emblemer is different color than it will be really, somewhat brighter in the game.

Tho, it's not a game breaking problem, is it? ^^
