Green/yellow Screen after downloading Sequoia 15.5, on 27 inch iMac.

I have a 27 inch Retina Display I mac (2019). After installing Sequoia 15.5. my display will turn a yellow/green color when it goes into screen saver mode. The imac will wake up with no problem.  Is the yellow / green screen systematic of a major problem? 

iMac 27″, macOS 15.5

Sounds like a bug...


—A SafeBoot Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support will sort many anomalies


Does a quick disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled temporarily.

Login and test. Reboot as normal and test. Caches get rebuilt automatically.


no resolve—

Try resetting the System Management Controller Reset the SMC of your Mac - Apple Support
