Right click on your Desktop and go to properties. Under the Screen Saver Tab go to the bottom and select Advanced or Power Settings and turn off all the shut down options. Select Never for each one, hit Apply, then Ok and your problems should be gone.
Did you try another electric cable. Could be a bad connection.

Yes, you can use the same type of cable and some people plug their monitors into the computer power supply. It doesn't really power the monitor, it just passes thru the wall current.
