Computer screen is red in the background. i can still see things in the desktop and my files seem to be ok. I wiggled the cords and nothing changes. It's a satellite 665
 
I have seen LCD screens that are failing do this. See if you can move or slightly bend the screen itself..... did you ever drop the unit?
