So I recently moved between states, and just powered on my monitor for the
first time. In the blue bios screen, the lower right corner of the
monitor is green. I tried to run its built-in degauss function, and that
just seems to cause the image to rotate clockwise a couple degrees and
doesn't do anything to fix the color. If I adjust the lower-right landing
to 0, it _almost_ appears normal, but you can still see greenish areas on
the right and bottom edge.
So what could have happened to this? I don't think the monitor was
exposed to any strong magnetic fields (I have another monitor just like it
that survived fine), but it might have been banged around a bit, and
possibly sat in a weird position for a month.
Any quick things I can try (I'm comfortable opening it up, and I know how
to discharge tubes, etc) before taking it to an actual repair place? If I
need to take it in, how much can I expect it to cost?
Thanks.
