Probably nothing more than the cable at the back of the computer -- where the monitor plugs into the computer -- has come loose. When the pins are not in correctly (or the cable is falling off), the colors tend to be one color -- then the cable falls off entirely and you get nothing. Reconnect the monitor to your computer.

If that's not it, also check the video card inside the computer and reseat it. Power up and see what you get.

If still a problem, try another monitor.

The cable may be connected correctly, but some of the pins may be bent. Check the pins and make sure that none are bent or have broken off.
