monitor f*****?

[stumanoo]

my monitor every now and then flickers and then gives everything a blue colour

could it be on its way out or could it be my graphics card (radeon 9000 with latest catalyst drivers ) ?

p.s.
while i was writing this my monitor was blinking blue to normal then back again

check the drivers maybe go back to an older driver

check to make sure there are no bent pins on the cable to the moniter and the conneccter is firmly seated

if possible i would test this monitor on another computer. if it still does it you would know it is not the video card or drivers. i think you have a hardware failure emminent.

or the cable might be faulty

yeah, test on another comp, and if it still has a prob your monitors done.

I had the same problem with my monitor except the colour was green. It WAS a faulty monitor.

try the least expensive options first.

thanks for the input everyone

i disconnected then reconnected the monitor and it seems to be fine(for now?)

heres hoping it is

monotors are bloody expensive pieces of kit :-(
