Careful swapping will narrow the problem down. If he disconnects the cable at the back of the monitor and puts another monitor right there, and if it looks good, then it's a bad monitor. If it's still green, it may be the video card. Or his video control panel (the Nvidia control panel allows you to adjust each color separately; people with kids might find their colors way off).
