Montior took a crap?
24" dell may have just gone bad. Everything is a flickering hue of pink red or purple. The black border of my background now looks like the black and white fuzz on tv, only its red and black. I can still make out what images should be. I can't seem to take a screenshot either. All cables are in place. Looking for when I bought the thing to see if its under warranty. Also if anyone knows a way to get screenshot besides print screen, ctrl-v let me know pls.

Re: Montior took a crap?
Alt+PrntScrn should just take a shot of the selected/active/foreground window.
Have you tried a new cable? I'd swap that out first (since it's super easy) before scrapping the whole monitor. |

Re: Montior took a crap?
Does wiggling the cable affect the display?
Can you put the monitor on another computer to test it? |

A screen shot probably won't show what the display actually looks like. It will show what the display would look like if the monitor wasn't broken (if you display it on a good monitor, anyway).
