Default Viewsonic Monitor goes RED



I have a Viewsonic PF790 monitor. After being on for a while, it will
slowly start to go red on me. the picture expands horizontally also.
Sometimes it happens after 15 minutes, other times it works for several
hours. If I shut it off for a few minutes, it works OK again. then it will
slowly go red and wide.
Any ideas??

TIA-

--seeing red
