Had a monitor with this problem just last week. Opened the case, saw
about half a pound of dust bunnies, blew the dust out with shop air, and
couldn't get the problem to repeat.

If you try this before going the 'qualified tech' route, be careful not
to touch any part of the board(s) or tube. Just remove the cover, spray
out the dust daemons, and replace the cover. Even after the power is
removed, several thousand volts lurk within.
