No Signal After Standby

I just hooked up my desktop (Gateway) to my new HDTV via
VGA.

It was working fine for a day, even with restarting it.
Then, I put it in standby, then an hour later, touched
the mouse to turn it back on, it seemed to go back on
but the tv was getting "No Signal."

I rebooted the computer manually pressing buttons on
the tower a few times -- still no signal. What can I do?
It seems to be still having some kind of weird hang up
from that standby that i can't break.....

The VGA is coming out of the graphics card I have, which is
a NVIDIA GEforce 8500 GT I believe. It was working fine
until standby, like I said.

I tried plugging it into the VGA port that comes standard on
the motherboard but that didnt work either. However to make
it work maybe I had to take out the graphics card?

At any rate I don't even see how I could get back into the
computer since I can't seem to find a way to get a display
out of it. I have another monitor with a VGA and mini DV
connection, would that help?

Right now I feel like there's no way to get a signal output
even if I wanted to change settings internally on the OS.

Thanks for any help I can get!
