Monitor Problem? Pl. Help.

[pvk]

Question 1) When I switch on PC, Monitor becomes on ( light on monitor glows to yellow,) but after 6-8 seconds monitor stops (light changes to golden). and nothing happens and Nothing comes on screen. If I amke some 5-6 iterations of making ON-OFF the PC, the monitor MAY starts and normal operation starts. I am facing this problem from last @ 1 year. Pl. Suggest.
Some times it happens that the computer does not start after 20-25 iterations also. Pl. Suggest.

I don't think we know whether this is a monitor problem or a computer problem.  Can you connect the monitor to another computer to see whether it does the same thing, or works OK?  

And, tell us about your computer: hardware specs, age, etc.
