Dear Paul, thank you very much for your time and answer, I followed those steps, somehow it helped the performance of my Imac, is faster now, but the screen issue about the very High contrast colours is still there. Since I am a photographer I am very depending on the screen calibration. I am worried that I came to damage the video card when I shut down the computer from the swicth when It was frozed.

I guess it's possible that the video card is damaged - hope not.

All I can suggest is that you have a look in System Preferences and check that nothing has been altered in the 'Displays' preference pane. You could also have a look in Universal Access (Accessibility in later versions of OS X) and check that no video settings there have been activated inadvertently.
