Is my monitor broken?

It's displaying an image that I suspect is at the complete minimium the tube will display at, as well as being curved to the Nth degree and slanted. reset button and re-installing drivers didn't work. Anything else I should try, or time to throw it out?

How old is it?
Chuck it and pick up another CRT for free, there's always people wanting to get rid of them.

If you can wait until the Grim Bash you can have my 19" Hyundai. It's pretty good as CRTs go, and the smallest you could get at the time.

Sure, anything I can give you in return? Beer? Late night love?

Tube's probably gone.
I got it from a warehouse that does refurbished monitors and used it for a couple years.
It probably was on its way out, shame it didn't last long though

Just give it a good home. It's a decent monitor and I don't have room for it really, but I didn't want to give away to a family member who wouldn't appreciate it.
