Default Screen graphics shot to hell on jasjar

I do not know how this happened, if it was due to TOMTOM5 what, but the screen resoluton has become completely blurred and even a hard reset won't bring it back? attached is a photo that shows the problem. This is not a camera issue as the same distortion is visible everywhere including cnn.com? any ideas?

Explain....

So, your display is blurred or the camera? If it's the screen at fault, posting apicture from the camera doen't help us as it isn't displayed on your screen.

Default the screen is at fault

it is the screen, not the camera that is gone. that is why I mentioned that this happens on cnn.com too. I don't know how to do a screen shot, so I had to use a photo.

This but is similar to what one might see on an overly mpeged photo, or if I take the colors on my PC screen down to 64 or 128 from128000 etc. so I think is a setting issue, maybe tomtom reset the scree somehow? who knows, but the fix lies somewhere in the registry, I hope

Again, it won't matter if you do a screen shot as the grab is handled internally.

Get a camera and take a picture of the screen when it's displaying the problems.

Default a bit of confusion here...

I don't have a pc here, so I could only see the photo through this screen, not realizing the camera and hence data/ photo uploaded were absolutely fine.

Lacking a means of showing the problem, all I can do is describe it, so here goes.

The photo and images look very square, some large areas that, for example used to a clear blue, with detailed tones and variations in brightness/ contrast, becomes solid blue. this happens everywhere, all contrast and detail flatening out and becoming solid/opaq.

It may be a screen resolution or color setting that has been altered and that cannot be changed back after a hard reset. Thanks for offering to help here,
M
