First try all the options listed above. A CRT works by a beam of electrons being fired at the screen, the direction of these beams is controlled by electromagnets, so if you place a magnet near the screen it will bend the beam away from where it is supposed to be. It could possibly be a broken wire in the monitor cable, signals to the monitor compose of a Red, Green and Blue component obviously if you loose the blue the the picture will appear somewhat red. If you have individual controls on your monitor to adjust the Red, Green and Blue Levels, try turning the Red and Green down, if you loose the picture completely then you're loosing the blue for some reason. There is a small PCB on the back of the CRT which controls the electron guns, if this has worked loose, or the contacts are dirty then you could loose one of the colour components, for this you'll need someone who knows what they are doing to take the back off the monitor and check it. Sometimes there are adjustments on this PCB, which could be changed to bring the Blue level back up, again this should really be done by someone who knows how to. I hope this has helped.

How old is the monitor? Could be going wrong. Can you try a different monitor and see if that cures the problem? Might possibly be the video card or chip, but monitor substitution is the way to go in the first place. If the monitor is buggered, buy a new one, not worth repairing.

It is most likely the monitor needs replacing. If a Video Card fails it tends to just not work.
Definetly worth trying another monitor.

Check the monitor cable is fully inserted into your pc (turn off, remove it, re-insert it and make sure the screws are fully tightened).
If this does not work, monitors are not economical to repair (unless its some sort of mega-expensive, super-deluxe model) so it's time to get a new one.

Adjust the Hue on the monitor. If this doesn't work set the hue back where it was. Then try to adjust the tint. If neither work you will need a new monitor.

I turned away from US and Canada questions so I could read English and I get the same bad grammar and spelling. Is this a world problem that nobody wants to speak, write or type English?

Make sure there are no magnets on or near the monitor.

make sure there is nothing magnetic around your monitor like those stupid shake flashlights, my monitor was rainbow colors before because someone put my flashlight near my monitor..

to aim and save this short. the priority you're encountering is that between the colour weapons has dropped out likely is your green gun, and to aim and restore this concern may well be greater costly than changing the video demonstrate.
