I bought my camera over a year ago, so the warrenty has gone. But before i take it to be repaired i wondered if there was anything i could do to fix it. I turned it on last week, and the screen was red with streaks down it, and when u hold it up to the light, it changes colour. I can view old images on my memory card perfectly, and the settings screens are visible, i just cant seem to take a picture. Help!!!
I hope you still have this camera. This sounds like a defective Sony CCD issue. If so, Sony will fix your Minolta camera for free (with free shipping) regardless of warranty. You need to do this before March 31, 2008 so get going! See this link:

The Dimage models that Sony is accepting for the recall repair are:
Dimage 7HI, 7I, A1, Xi, F300, XT, X20, S414.
Its again a case of suspected bad CCD. the symptions you have mentioned indicates towards that your camera needs a new CCD.
