Default Monitor problem

I have a dell computer and my monitor keeps going off. The green button keeps
flashing and after shaking wires and waiting, it will come back on again. Any
suggestions on what it can be. I had my brother up the other day and he said
that all wires are secure.
Thanks so much,
Valerie

Broken wire inside the cable? Replace the cable to see if that fixes the
problem.

Default RE: Monitor problem

actuall the problem may be a setting in the computer, shaking the wire
possibly just moves the mouse. go to start>control panel>power options> where
it says turn off monitor, change it to never, hit ok, and you are all set, if
all else fails, replace the wire
