    $\begingroup$ This is a very bizarre feature of M10. I encountered the same issue with Windows 8 and recalibrating the display color did the trick. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 28, 2015 at 20:36

    $\begingroup$ So, now we have to find out under which circumstances it happens (I have not encountered this yet). $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 28, 2015 at 20:39

    $\begingroup$ ...and after using this solution, my Mathematica (10.0.2) suddenly needs extra time "Formatting Notebook Contents". A very bizarre bug indeed. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 29, 2015 at 12:34
  • $\begingroup$ Are you sure it's related? Many people get this message (myself included) though we haven't changed this setting or suffer from the orange bug. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 29, 2015 at 12:36

    $\begingroup$ @bobthechemist without a doubt, Mathematica (even version 9, which takes a long time to start) has some odd problems with monitors on Windows 7 and 8. I managed to fix my laptop using the monitor driver replacement suggested elsewhere, but for my multiple-monitor desktop, it made no difference. The same problems are not observed on Windows 2003. Someone surely needs to have a serious look at what the FE is doing here. (Hoping for the best with 10.2!) Thanks to your comment, in the mean time, I will try uncalibrating my color and see if it helps. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 30, 2015 at 0:38
