If you turn the monitor off for awhile, does it start back up fine, and then after about 10 minutes or so, return to the yellow tint? That's what my 17" Multiscan did for about 6 months, gradually getting darker and darker (mine was blue though), untill the screen turned completely blue and then black. It never did come back on. Someone suggested it was a cold solder joint, but for the price of CRT monitors, I'm not going to open one up. J White Buy American S.O.S.
