when i try to start my computer the monitor just displays a screen where there is a box with some values in hertz. i have removed my monitor cables and connected again but still i get the same screen which looks like a screen saver but without the computer starting.
what is wrong and what can i do to troubleshoot it?

I think till now you have got the solutions indeed since you have posted the querry in mylotting but inspite of that I would like to share with you some solutions :
- first check the cable from both side means from the computer and monitor both side
- check this problems with other computers
- check it with different cable
I think within above 3 conditions you would be able to find out the reason of your problem
please revert me also about your solutions , cheers :-)

the problem was because my video card was not supporting my old monitor. hence i need a new monitor or an old video card. thanks for your reply..

well i don't no about your problem but few years back my monitor started acting funny.. it would go off without any indication.. i called in my guys and they found that my video card was all dusty and soiled.. they cleaned it well and it's been working just fine for me ever since.

as i see , i think the video card is turned bad...i would suggest to try to see if you hard disk is connected during start up..also check for a beep sound during start up...try to change the monitor...if you give more details like your monitor and pc configurations and ram , that would help to figure out the problem...
