in the last few days my monitor colours seem to be going out of sync
i can see all 3 colours if i open a window and follow the line down the side or words look blurred, its like looking at a 3d film without 3d specs.
i opened the case up & tryed adjusting the screws in the monitor itself but it seems to be more of a focus thing not getting the colors back in line
any ideas thanks...
my tv could be fixed with this problem by displaying a cross in the center of the screen and all you had to do was aline the colours left or right but my monitor doesnt seem to have this tool
ps i tryed a different monitor and it works fine so the pc is ok
its a 21" hitachi crt monitor old, but i beleive it can be fixed

Sounds like your convergence is messed up. Newer monitors (decent ones, anyway) have settings to adjust this, but I have no idea if your old one would. You might Google around to see if anyone has the same model, and the same problem.

If by chance you still have the manual, look to see if it says anything about convergence adjustments.
