Hi
For the last few weeks my monitor has been playing me up. If you accidentally touched the lead between the monitor and computer it would turn all yellow, or all green or all blue.
Now it has turned the screen all blue no matter what I do.
Do i need a new monitor or is it the computer?
Thanks

1. Disconnect the monitor and try another monitor and see what happens.
If it works, then your monitor is dead if it doesnt, then your video/graphics card is most likely dead.
First test is to try and hook another monitor up and see what happens.0
