was ok last night (albeit without any blue colour but I know about that problem). Switched on today and I get messed up screen as in pics below. This happens regardless of whether i've got my computer running or my original zero wing jamma pcb in it.
is it dead?

Horizontal Hold/frequency is out of adjustment. I think your monitor needs a capkit too.

my camera is my mates mobile phone camera.
i've fiddled with the pots on the back and got the screen back. problem now is the right hand edge of the screen finishes short of the right hand side of the monitor. theres a gap of about 3/4 inch. none of the horizontal pots adjust it.
any ideas?

as Ken said - the monitor more than likely needs a cap kit - meaning, the resitors capacitors and the like on the monitor chassis (the circuit board with all the twidlly pots and electronic gubbins) will probably need replacing
