If you enter "Menu" on your monitor, there may be something to "de-Gauss" the thing. I would imagine it is de-Gaussed every time you turn it on anyway.

Just a thought, Karen, have you stood a loudspeaker, or headphones or mobile phone near the screen? the pixels will react to strong magnetic fields...........will go away eventually,

Hiya Green tint has gone now :-) I dont know what the prob was but I decided to shut down PC and restart it and that seems to have cleared it, it must have just been having a bad screen day :-) Karen

Hiya I've only had my PC monitor (and PC) for about 18 months and when I switched my PC on this evening around the edges of my screen its all green. I never leave my screen switched on when its not in use. I cant believe its on its last legs already :-( Any ideas what it could be? Thanks. Karen
