It seems that your monitor's not receiving a signal from the video card. The monitor isn't the problem, there's something wrong with your computer. When you start it, do you get the single POST beep indicating all is well? If not, you have some troubleshooting to do...could be the CPU, could be the motherboard, could be power supply.
