Try plugging it into the hard-drive? Or, if that fails, hit it. Lots. Then sleep with your next door neighbour.

Did you colour it with crayons? Green isn't a good colour. Go for blue or red.

There's a button on the back of some monitors that turns the screen green. Don't ask why there just is.

If that button's been pressed, or flicked if it's a switch and you can right the problem by turning the monitor around and having a look.

If it's not that then the colour's gone haywie in your monitor, as happens on some TV's and you need to buy a new one.

Sleeping with your next door neighbour is the solution Microsoft recommends. If he/she isn't in then the family pet is also suggested as a viable alternative. Have fun..

and visit http://www.sparse.org/~mrt to put the Mr.T effect into any web page, genius.

sounds like your tubes are on the blink i fixed mine by hitting it really hard several times, hey it worked.

it's been ok ever since it used to have a high pitched noise so i hit it again and that fixed that to.

if it's broke hit it thats what i say :)

and if that fails just smash it up in the garden as thats fun or drop it off a high building (i recomend a multi-story car park)


then after all that sleep with your neighbour and offer them a muffin for there trouble.
