I just recently installed an application on a machine that has never had sesame installed on it.  When I run the application, everything is in very plain colors. The backgrounds of the forms are all grey.  I programmed all the forms with background of 204,204,204.  This usually comes out blue or purple -ish on most monitors.

I checked the ini file and don't see anything that would change the color.

If I remove the pound sign from the SCHEME line it does open using Softgradient so I am fairly certain Sesame is using this ini file (no other ini files exist on this computer)  One other strange behavior is that the Quick Start menu is active - even though it is set to off in the ini file.

I also checked and there are not any startup switches.
I set the windows settings for backgrounds and window colors to the same on both computers.

What else might I check....it is driving me crazy (well, more crazy than normal).

Thanks for any pointers.

Both are using True Color (32 bit).  Both are running Win 7

That is what I was just discovering.  I have dual monitors at my desk and both are showing a blue color for 204,204,204.  So I just reset the monitors to default and used the Windows 7 calibrate feature.  Both monitors came out very near the same - still blue.  Must be one of two things: 1.  I'm colorblind  2. Microsoft this "feature" to color the world to their view.  lol

Thanks for your help - I'll try to let go of it so I don't end up completely crazy.
