I have a Samsung SyncMaster 793s and suddenly today when i switched my PC on,my monitor color was a tinted Yellow
I tried my system on a friends monitor and its working fine
So the problem is with the CRT monitor
Thoughts ?

Check the cable on the CRT. If its loose, has pins bent it does produce color effects as you mentioned.

Cable problem. You can get it repaired for a few hundred bucks.

Try Degauss once.
then check cables,if both doesn't work then the problem is with IC on board.
that can be fixed by 400-500 bucks.

I did check the cables and the pins seems to be fine
And did degaussing but nothing
I guess,I have to submit the monitor to the local PC hardware dealer

just try to replace the cable once before going to the service shop, if that fails then it could be the tube

I tired that as well but i guess i'll have to give it to the service shop
or maybe even get a Samsung 2033SW 20 inch which is also a decent monitor i guess

yes upgrading to a 20' LCD seems like a good option

go for it

Go into monitor panel menu
And see if the K! value is 9300 and NOT 6300.
