missing color in Photoshop pallete and opened pictures

[dinolida]

Hello,
This a sort of repeated thread, but sorry - latest and only one respond was not helpful, it just happened that I pressed the wrong button to mark that (I am a new user of this service)PLease read the question below, and note that the solution about CMYK mode is not a solution unfortunately.
THE QUESTION:
I hope someone can help about this strange thing:
after some calibrations (PS 5.5) and prefereces change (or for some quite different reason) a yellow color (and some nuances) disappeared from my color pallete and from all opened pictures! It is impossible to work.. The same pictures look absolutely normal when viewed out of Photoshop, or even in its preview window, only in Photoshop they are mostly red-blue etc. I tried all things like (re)installing the photoshop many times, copying some sistem filed I suspected being corrupted, sistem file checker etc, I copied many sistem files and all I suspected from another machine and no result at all. Only thing I don't want to do is to reinstall the Windows 98.
Is there any special file responsible for this dissapearing of one color and how should I replace it. I reapeat I tried to replace all adobe files in windows I could find out..maybe I missed some?
Thanks in advance
Dino

Try Adobe's own Discussion Group pages - someone there should be able to help.

(I had odd colours once with PS on my Mac and deleting the preference file did the trick - not sure just where to look with Windows. If you haven't already done it, search out any and every file connected with PS and bin the lot, then try installing PS again)
