I am having problems getting the colour scheme correct for
viewing graphics and images within Netscape and I am looking
for any advice on how to solve this problem.

Problem:
========
The problem is that any images that can normally be viewed
internally within the Netscape window are pretty much blacked
out, with only black and purple creating the image.  However,
if the image is viewed from an external viewer (LVIEW in this
case), the image is picture perfect.  As well, printing the
WWW page from Netscape itself gives a perfect print-out of
the image/graphic.

Set-up:
=======
I am running Netscape 1.1 from Windows 3.1 on a 486 IBM PC clone.
It is using an ATI Ultra Pro Mach 32 Video Driver running at
1024 horizontal resolution.

What I have tried:
==================
I have already tried different settings from the Netscape
Options/Preferences menu to no avail.  All this seems to
control is the colour scheme of the different texts and
backgrounds, but not the images or graphics.

If any body has any ideas or advice on what to try so that
I can read the graphics and see the images and graphics on 
the WWW from Netscape properly, please let me know.

Thanks,
