When I turn my computer monitor on it flashes on for a second and then blacks out. It only displays a picture for the first second upon turning it on and then goes blank. Can anyone give me any kind of insight as to what the problem might be. It is a flat screen IDN(?).

Move the monitor to a different PC If it works there, you have a problem with the video card in the original PC.

If it doesn't, replace the monitor.
