Sepia Color Display

Solved

Hello everyone,
My good home PC running Windows XP has been displaying a lovely sepia color since yesterday when I turn it on. It reminds me of the old computers from my youth!
The graphics card is an NVIDIA GeForce FX5200 and the screen is an Acer 19"
This malfunction appeared after I moved the computer 1 meter, only unplugging the power supply.
Since then, I have unplugged and replugged everything, reinstalled the driver provided with the computer, but nothing works.
In the control panel, everything seems normal; I have the message "this device is working properly."
I'm really not good with computers, so thank you for your advice!!
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0

    Look in your monitor's settings menu for color settings (6500K - 9300K - etc...).

      Thank you TazDevil! The simplest solution is the one we always forget...
      Just restore everything by simply pressing the "reset" button on the monitor!
      And thanks again for your super quick response...
