Hi
My dad's computer has and ViewSonic CRT screen (don't remember the exact specs now), and about a week or so, it started to look greenish. It's like green was set to the max on the monitor config. I tried to correct it, but I only could move red or blue, green was "fixed".
I noticed that sometimes, not always, when you connect an USB drive to the PC, the screen goes normal, but then turns green again.

Anyone know if it's correctable? is it the monitor or just the conector on the cable? Has anyone had the same issue?

Thanks

Possibly something to the effect of DVD+R's post - http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=199206

In addition check for physical imperfection's and overlapped or crossed wire's causing electrical interference.
Of four post's describing similar behavior, two were caused by damaged usb port's and two by psu proximity.
