Don't see any picture anymore

[garance95]

Hello, this morning, when I opened lightroom, I could't see any picture anymore. Everything else is ok, except that the cells are grey. i can use all the development tools, change colors, croop, find the image with the explorater, see the historic, but I can't see any image, which makes everything harder . I "compacted" (?) the catalog, re start the computer, but nothing improved.
Do you have any idea ? I work with lightroom 2.4

Hi Garance, welcome to the forum!

Usually that's one of two problems - either your graphics card driver needs updating, or more often it's a corrupted monitor profile that causes those grey boxes. See here for how to check: http://www.lightroomqueen.com/blog/2''8/12/28/corrupted-monitor-profile/

Thank you !!
I didn't think at all of this and effectively, I just recalibrated the monitor with a spyder sonde, but at it's not the first time, I didn't think it could create problems;
Thanks again, I'm saved;

Thanks a lot again!
First I made a new calibration, follow the steps on your blog, open again LR, see all my pictures and almost hug my computer.
