Colour difference between original image and preview

I'm using version 5.5 in Windows 2000. I am confused because all other images in other programs etc appear normal whereas in photoshop 5.5 they have a greenish tinge. I corrected this on the original image by choosing View > Preview > Uncompensated RGB. However, if I try colour adjustment etc e.g. variations, all the preview images still have the green tinge. Does anyone know how to correct this?

Also Uncompensated RGB is supposed to be the default view, but when I close PS the setting is lost and on opening, all images including the original are back to green. What am I missing? I have other versions 5.5 and CS on other pcs with no problems.

Thanks

You're better off using Adobe RGB (1998) for your profile. It's a much more commonly accepted profile.

Also, it never hurts to readjust your Gamma. Go to Control Panel, Adobe Gamma and run through the instructions.

Thanks. I ran Adobe Gamma (again!) and it's a lot better now.
