Monitor salvageable? Or busted?

Monitor salvageable? Or busted?

Attached video of monitor problem. Roommate uses my PC for work. Says the monitor randomly went completely green shown in this video whilst he was in the middle of working. It doesn't respond when moving windows into it's display. When turning on/off the monitor, the green fades in. Menu pop-up for monitor settings via controller on back doesn't appear either.

I'm hoping this is just a power delivery issue, since I have noticed the cable's rubber jacket has come undone slightly near the power-brick. But could I be wrong & it's a hardware issue with the monitor?

I'm using Retroarch on my AYN Thor. When I launch a PS1 (Bugs Bunny Lost In Time) game, I get the error 'Retroachievements game load failed: hash generation failed'. But when I launch it on my PC version of Retroarch, it works just fine. Both PC & Android are running version 1.22.2. They're running the same SwanStation core. And I have tried 5 different games in different formats of the game. One that I decoded myself to a .bin & .cue, another that is a .chd, one that I unzipped on Android, another where it was a straight download of the .chd file. But for some reason, it just doesn't work on the AYN Thor. I'd like to avoid using alternative emulators & instead have it all self-contained within RetroArch, any ideas on what's causing the error?
