    My patent method with misbehaving CRT monitors is to give them a sharp thump on the top casing. Usually this is done for instances where the whites have gone purple, or some such. Beware -- both your mileage and your monitor may vary!

    PS Yes, it does work. But not for ever. And probably not in your case...!
