Hello, Bit of a problem with my PC and was wondering if someone could help me Please. It's quite a simple one (although fixing it may not prove to be easy!!) Basically my monitor will only come on once in every ten attempts when the PC is switched on. If you want to the monitor to work you have to leave it half an hour between attempts and even then it is not guaranteed to work!!

It's definately not the monitor as I have switched it with another one and still no joy. Both monitors are definately both fine on other computers.

PLEASE HELP!!!
