Pink Screen?
I've done a lot of googling and have gotten very little help. What's happening is whenever I start the game up, right before the first logo, my screen takes on a bright pink hue. It's not totally pink, so not the pink screen of death that comes up in my google searches. What I usually end up doing is switching my input from Display Port to HDMI 1, and since there's no input there, it switches itself back, problem solved. I could just turn the monitor off and back on, that works too, but I have a two monitor setup and it messes with my windows positions.

I HAVE found out that this is an HDR issue. If I turn HDR off in my windows settings, the problem goes away, but also my display is a lot less nice. So, it's not a fatal problem, it's just REALLY ANNOYING.

It seems like this would be a general problem, but it ONLY happens with Baldur's Gate 3, and no other games. I'm not 100% sure that any of the other games I've tested use HDR, so I'm installing one that I know uses HDR now to check.

Another odd happening: Before Patch 2, the pink screen would only happen when I start the game. I play in borderless windowed, if that makes any difference. When I'd exit the game, everything's fine. Now exiting the game will give me the same pink screen as when I start it.

Can anyone help me fix this? All of my cables are plugged in properly and nothing's loose. Once I reset my input, everything's beautiful, so I don't think it's bad hardware, but I'm not ruling that out completely. I'm running an nVidia RTX 3060.

I'm having the same issue here, as soon as I launch the game the screen goes pink, some guy said it got fixed for him after nvidia drivers update and game update, but I have everything updated and still have this happening, only happens when HDR is enabled and turning the monitor off and on again fix it but it's annoying to do it everytime.
If someone found a fix please could you share it?

Exact same issue as described here;
Enter the game, screen turns pink.
If I turn the screen off and on, it seems to work.
Once I exit, same pink screen.
Just got an ASUS screen that supports HDR.
Updated graphics drivers with nvidia 4060ti.
Validated BG3 game files.
Did you find a fix?

I have the same problem - actually with BG3 and Divinity 2 - any fixes yet?
