You are not getting any video out of your computer need to check your video hook up from the back of the computer to the mointor sometimes they slip off. If its not that then you are receiving nothing from your video card from your computer.

Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply, blown fuses, poor solder joints, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums

Sounds like the inverter is dying/died. Take a flashlight and shine it directly or at a large angle at the screen - is the picture still there? If so then the backlight inverter has failed (very common). You can either send it off to get fixed (expensive) OR buy a new inverter and change it yourself (sometimes cheap, sometimes expensive) OR you can repurpose another inverter in your monitor (requires electronic skills and experience but very cheap - http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=ccfl+light+kit )
