I have just bought a brand new 19inch TFT....

Its not the most expensive one, but, the colours are not right... reds on other monitors are a slight pink on this one... it seems a bit off "true colour"...what can I do to correct it?

Play with its settings? (The buttons on front of it).

What brand is it?

If you've got Photoshop installed, the Adobe Gamma program does a good job of balancing out the screen colours on TFTs.

The Adobe knowledgebase article on using Adobe Gamma is here;

And a useful article on monitor calibration and Gamma can be found here;

Hope this helps.
