All those colors are true

Like I said, I think my coloring is OK but the bank assures me THEY are seeing a light green when I am seeing yellow

I even asked my wife ... "What color is that?" (she had no idea what I was doing nor who I was talking to) and she said "yellow"

I’ve worked in the graphics field on desktop computers for decades and am familiar enough with Windows machines, despite being more Mac oriented. There should be a system preference (I believe Microsoft calls it a Control Panel) for monitors and color. Go and check what setting it’s on, then find out what manufacturer’s specification is for that setting. If it’s correct then your problem is likely the monitor itself, although the color problem would not be so narrow, you’d be weak on blue no matter what you viewed, not just a light green background looking yellow.

To temporarily read from the bank screens, you can highlight (as if you are cutting and pasting), and the print may show up in a different color.

I also really struggle with reading when there is white or light-colored print, so you have my sympathy.

Also, on my “old-ish) Dell monitor, there are buttons right on the lower right of the screen with which to make adjustments, in addition to going into the Control Panel options that some have suggested.

I hate it when “meat & potatoes” websites try too hard to be edgy. Just give us straightforward tools to work with!
