The wifes laptop changed for some reason, the white bits on every program went black and the text green??
I have restored it back to normal but don't know how it happened. Can anyone shed any light on this?

System restore worked mind, just wondering if there is a bright light setting or something as everything went in reverse if you know what I mean.

Dark became light and light became dark. Also the icon and task bar bits went a bit Windows 95.

Sounds like High Contrast was selected for some reason.
