Hi I have got an Optiquest Q41 (December 1998, I know its quite old). The screen is totally white even when the computer is switched off. And when I switch it off it makes a sort of rainbowish colour blob at the centre of the screen. Could someone tell me what the problem is? I have even uploaded the video. http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=de90oAokx5M P.S. Please do not give me replies to by a new CRT or LCD since they are extremely expensive in India.
I am afraid you need Another Monitor, it sounds like the monitor is going out. All most any time you see rainbow colors coming from any TV/monitor means it is on its last leg... Maybe you can find another used monitor...
