Default Broken LCD monitor -- Fades out with green tint

I had a sony with a bad inverter board doing exactly that.
Try powering the bulbs one by one using an inverter board from an old
scanner.
If the picture stays, you have a bad inverter, if it fades, bulb in question
is bad.
Most monitors have more then one lamp.

I have more than one bulb, 4 to be exact - 2 in the top and 2 in the
bottom.

I have taken the entire monitor apart and like I said before, I can't
find any faults with the inverter circuitry.

Is it normal to have dark deposits on the ends of the CCFL tube? That
is what I have and I don't know if that indicates that my tubes are
bad.
