ok, so i was recording VIDEOS for my collection on youtube and all of a sudden my monitor fades to a tinted white COLOR. It is not fully white because i still see everything except that i can't make out any words. Everything is so blurry. I tried taking the monitor cable out and inserting it back in, but that didn't help at all. What has happened and is the best thing for me to do? First of all, did you try RESTARTING your computer?
What OS do you have?
Have you made any changes recently?
What happens if you boot into Safe Mode? Is everything still white?

And most importantly...did you try your monitor on a different computer, and did you try a different monitor on your current computer?i have tried restarting the computer and still the same outcome. My os is windows xp sp2 and i have not made any recent changes before this happened. I can't try a different monitor since i only have one. When going into safe mode it is still tinted white. If it's a CRT (tube) monitor (fat at the back, not flat panel) try looking on the monitor SETTINGS for "degauss". yeah, i tried that degauss thing but it didn't do the trick.Can you borrow a monitor to try as a test and try your monitor on a different computer too.
That cuts the problem in ½ immediately.hmmm, i don't really KNOW anybody who'd lend me one...if i attempt to find someone..it'll be a while till i could get my hands on one. Well, if you can get ahold of another monitor, it'll help rule out a lot of things. Otherwise, we'll just be taking shots in the dark here. And I'm willing to bet that your monitor (and not your computer) is probably the problem.well i'll try my best on finding a monitor for the test
