Hi,
I need a new 19 inch monitor (non wide-screen), the backlight on the current one in on the way out, or that's what I assume has happened as the screen is pink and getting pinker!
My current one is a HP and have been looking HP and Samsung so far. I need a good quality display as I do some web design work, but am on a buget so looking to spend £150 at the very most, any recommendations?

There are very good deals on the Iiyama ProLite B1906S around £153 inc VAT, very good panel, gets recommended in PC Pro Oct 2009 issue, I have several similar versions and they are excellent.0

Is it a CRT or TFT-LCD? If the former, there is no backlight; if the latter, the source of the problem may not be the monitor itself. Have you tried using it with another PC?...the backlight on the current one in on the way out, or that's what I assume has happened as the screen is pink and getting pinker!0 -
It's an HP L1906 LCD, my last CRT monitor gave up the ghost years back. I'm assuming getting the backlight repaired wouldn't be worth it?0

The backlight merely provides illumination; it's more likely to be a loose cable. Whilst the monitor can be repaired it's unlikely to be cost effective for such a small unit, especially if you get someone else to do it.0
