Most likely it is your video card. Some checksyou can perform to verify, no speakers with large magnets or other electric devices too close to the monitor.Check BIOS and verify that Initial First Display is set to type card you have, PCI or AGP and if onboard then it is enabled.Check cables connectivity,if possible try monitor on another computer.Those steps taken and still no picture it will be the video card.After replacing video card and problem persists it is probably you video card slot onthe MoBo.

Can you boot into safe mode and see anything? If you can then it is most likely the resolution or refresh rate is beyond what the monitor can handle. If you can't ever see anything it is probably a fault in the monitor and needs repair or replacement. Try it on another PC if you can to eliminate the video card.

The message you describe is something I might expect to see on some monitors after powering off the PC...its probably nothing to get worried about.

Boot up in safe mode and go to display properties, settings, advanced. Access the tab for your video card and make sure the monitor refresh rate isn't set to something outside of your monitor's ability to display. Its probably safest to set it to "optimal".
