First probable problem, loose video cable. Check the back of the PC. Unplug monitor, and look for bent pins in plug, (CAREFUL!!! Don't try to straighten them by yourself!) Plug it back in securly (don't torque on the screws though!)
Second less likely problem, broken wire inside video cable, replace.
Third even less likely problem, monitor needs degaussing, take it to a TV repair store, and tell them you want it "degaussed". They'll know what it means, and probably do it for next to nothing.
Fourth possible highly unlikely problem, monitor is toast, replace.
