Ok so this happened yesterday also.
The monitor was turned off, but the PC left on. I went away for a few
hours and came back and the PC was still on but the monitor would not
turn back on.. and the power button was flashing green/orange.
Yesterday all i did was restart the computer, unplug the power from the
monitor and replug it back in annd it came good... but today it didnt
work.
Ideas?
Double check that all yor connections are tight. Open your PC case (unplug it) and ensure that all your fans are clean. It appears that your problem is due to loose cable connections, but this may be a good time to do some computer spring cleaning.
If you tried two other monitors and they worked then you most likely have a bad monitor. You'll need to compare the cost of repairing the monitor vs. purchasing a new one. As a general rule I never recommend that a customer should attempt repairs on a monitor. It is much safer to let a pro fix it. On the other hand the cost of monitors has dropped drastically so it may be toime to treat yourself to a nice LCD flat panel.

Connections all look fine. Tried 2 other monitors and they worked fine.
I cleaned out the case this morning, ill try the monitor again later and let you know how it goes.
