Not sure which image capture software you're using. I tried using K3CCDTools, but the latest version of Imaging Source's IC Capture seems very good and been using that.
Anyway, seems to be the auto white balance settings. So I untick the auto WB option, and manually adjust the R and B keeping an eye on the histogram. Just need to make sure none of the channels go over saturation as they fluctuate.
Sorry if all of the above you're already familiar with. Just that I lost a few nights figuring this out and if I can help save you some time... That auto WB issue is something us with the DBK have to deal with that the mono guys don't AFAIK.

i used the IC capture software - i never even though of the white balance just used it straight out of the box
so i made a mistake and assumed it would be right....information greatly appreciated
