I am not sure this is the right group to ask the following question.
If not, suggestion for any other group will be very much appreciated.

The monitor (Princeton MAX-12) of my IBM-XT compatible is 
not working right.  Everytime I turn the computer on, the monitor
works for about 3-5 minutes and then goes off completely.  Each
time right before it dies, I see a bright vertical straight 
line on the center.

Does anyone know what the problem is?  Is just some
minor problem (fuse, etc)?  Can I fix by myself?   
If not, is it worth reparing the monitor?  I'd like to 
get it fixed, if possible, but not to put too much money 
for repair because I bought it three years ago for only $120.  
Any help for finding the problem or any suggestion
will be greatly appreciated.
