There's a possibility it's cable fault, yet also a possibility that both are broken. They are kinda old (8 years?)

So, I'm guessing you don't have a LCD monitor yet and we are therefore talking about an old CRT monitor?

If it's a CRT (Cathode Ray Tube), go and buy a LCD monitor, a good one can be bought for a reasonable price these days.

If it is a LCD monitor we are talking about, I personally wouldn't go poking around in the back of one unless you were pretty sure about what you were looking for, you could cause more problems than you fix. Wink

It was LCD monitor but with standard cable (no HDMI). But I think case is closed, since it was indeed fault of both monitor, which died today completly + cable. Talking about RGB was more about the fact thing lacked one color on TV (but it was all okay after I changed cable).

Now, I'm using old LCD, which is 4:3 (Eizo, link here). Oldschool at its finest, yet it is newly produced, to my suprise.
