Hey everyone here at TMN...just recently I got this weird problem that my display on my monitor seems to have lost its color and got more of a yellowish tint, and it coincides with the neon and side fans lights going out as well, what could be causing this, could it be that my graphics card is not on as tight as it should be or could this be a power problem?

The other thing to check would be the actual cable.  A bent pin can cause this also.
