I had a similar problem some months back. It turned out to be some problem with the RAM unable to support the graphics display. Get your RAM checked out. Also check out your power supply unit and make sure your graphics card is properly seated in its slot.
But the first thing to do is check that the problem lies with the monitor or the PC. Do this by seeing if another monitor works - borrow one from a friend. If the borrowed monitor works then your monitor is the thing that's busted. If the borrowed monitor doesn't work then the problem is something to do with your PC.
If your device manager (in My Computer) doesn't show that any device isn't working properly then start replacing and checking parts. The best way to do this is by starting with the simplest/cheapest:-
Checking that the RAM and video card are seated properly is relatively quick and cheap s do that first.
The power supply unit is quite easy to replace so that comes next
Then it's the video card and the RAM (which you do first will depend on how much each is worth)
Hopefully the problem will get fixed before you end up re-building your whole PC!

it truly is a number of issues. A asserting is the thinner they are the hotter they get, so a number of air ciculating aroung them is needed. it truly is a defective or intermittent skill button fault. i do no longer recognize in the journey that your working it analogue or digital. inspite of the undeniable fact that it would additionally be a GPU on its way out? verify all of the connections are organization and tight, even the photos card is homed interior the motherboard, verify followers are working besides, attempt reinstalling drivers and so on from grahics card help cd.

Hmmm.... to find out is your monitor having problem or your device drivers (software) is having problem, try boot into DOS mode, as it poses the minimum requirement to your monitor.
Then turn on and off, see is your monitor works or not.
If it work, then it is likely your device drivers for the monitor is having problem, try download the lastest the driver from the manufacturer and see it works or not.
If it still not working, try update the graphic card drivers.

If this is a Dell GX270 there is a known fault on the mother board. It is a problem with the capacitors. If so phone dell and they should replace it.
