Not sure how much you have done already to drill down, but make sure it is not your cable or monitor :-) If all that is ok you need to ask you self when the problem occured. Did it happen all the sudden when using it or maybe after moving it ? If it's mechanical, it might be an easy fix. If not, it might prove more tricky in case you need to replace some parts.

You should take a picture and put it in a lads mag if it's showing pink

Yep, that sounds like the green signal is missing from the monitor cable - just leaving red and blue will give you a magenta cast to everything. First thing is the cable, make sure no pins are bent. What sort of monitor is it? Does it have a connector at the monitor end as well which might be loose or damaged? Have you any other monitor you can try?
