| I just received a monitor from my friend. She user told me it turn bluish and greenish... It sound to me that the screen saver kill the screen!
What is your comment? Suggestion?
Thank you.. | |

| Sounds like they had a magnet close to the screen.
I went on a service call one time with the same problem. I immediately asked if she had any magnets close to the screen, and sure enough, she did. | |

| If it is the same all over the screen and not in splotches then you have lost the red signal. Normally this is a cable of smashed pin problem. Flex the cable near the computer end and near the end where it goes into the monitor. Generally it is the video card (computer) end. | |

Video card is the problem... need to get a new one. But what cause the sudden failure on the video card will remain unknown....

| OK... The monitor just went out.. Guess the monitor and the video card mess up. I don't know how she did it, but fancy screen saver is bad. | |

The screen saver does protect against burned in images of course. |
