Dead monitor :(

Hey, my monitor died today, the display is so dark (I mean very dark with brightness set to max) and blurry that it's totally unusable.
I was wondering if it could be because of custom resolution,
I made a 1088x800@85hz for my F700B that didn't seem to cause any problem till this morning. What you think?
It was listed as a "Supported resolution" on the control panel BTW

Does that problem still happen when you change to other resolutions?

Yeah, it did the same in safe mode. But something weird happened, I've retried few times during the day with no better result, and around 21:00 I retried again and it worked perfectly. I'm using it ATM. I have no idea what the problem was and I don't know if it will
occur again :s

Did the image also get stretched out?

Dunno, probably a little, but it was so dark and blurry that seeing the borders was impossible
