Computer monitor screen has green hue, please help!?

Question

My computer monitor and desk top have been in my car for the past 3 wks or so. Recently I plugged my computer pieces up and everything works fine except for the monitor? My screen has nothing but a green tint to it.

What could have caused this? I was told that magnets can afect ur screen but it wasn't near any magnets, also I was told that my car stereo could have done this.

At any rate, is there any way I can get my color back? Ive tried the deguass, it flicked different colors but my hue is still green. Ive also unplugged the plug that goes fromthe monitor to the desktop several times and this still hasnt fixed it.

Any ideas/suggestions?

Answer 1

Often this is a bent pin on the vga connector. Sometimes you can straighten them. With a small flat blade screwdriver, pry the pin up enough to grab it with a small pair of needle node pliers and then straighten it.

Answer 2

Double check the cable connections at both ends- where they connect to the back of your computer, and the monitor. Often when some pins aren't quite making contact, you'll get color hue shifts.

Answer 3

sounds like the bulb has gone from the monitor its probably due to a nock or something and to be honest your better of buying a new monitor

Answer 4

It sounds like a bulb issue. Maybe one of the other colors burnt out.

Answer 5

I had this problem too .but when i clicked the degauss it was set back to normal.I think your your monitor must have been damaged in the car.

Answer 6

it seem that yr monitor it self is foulty...the bulbs blown...it expensive to repair,i rather advice u to get second hand monitor rather than send it for repair
