[SOLVED] What's happened to my monitor, and can I fix it?

[kaigarrod]

So I came home one day, turned my monitor on, and it looks like this http://prntscr.com/l44txx what do I do?

Out of the blue? That's random. I would assume something/somebody hit it, at the point the two directions of lines intersect.

Would this be able to be fixed?

Probably not economically. Ie. It'll be cheaper/just as expensive to buy a new monitor.

Would I be able to send it back to the store, I have 2 years Manufacturer's guarantee

A manufacturer's warranty only applies to manufacturing defects, not accidental damage etc.

So, if it's a defect, sure.

If it's been damaged physically, they'll know and deny your warranty.
