I bought a 2003, 20" Apple Cinema screen secondhand recently and set it up with my G5. It worked perfectly and looked sublime until I put it to sleep and awoke it to find that everything had a green hue and nothing I could do with display set up or colorsync would change things. Does this mean that the display is damaged/dying or does anyone know of a fix? Putting back my old Samsung Syncmaster screen resulted in service as usual so it's not the graphics card.

It could be the end of the life cycle for that particular display. However, if you can get your hands on a HUEYpro , you might be able to hardware calibrate it back to life.. maybe..
 
Thanks Cory, I suspected as much. I'm going to look and see if anyone can repair these things before giving up on it though.
