First of all, the monitor didn't go dead. Here's what happened:

I looked over and saw a very quick DOS like box that said something about "signal" and then the monitor went dark. The green light went to yellow as if my CPU was powered down or asleep. So, I switched the monitor off and then on again. The light goes from yellow to green with some very quick message that I'm only catching "signal" from and then the monitor goes dark and the light changes to yellow.

My first thing to do will be to make sure my connections are all made, and possibly switch out the cable.

Anyone ever have something like this happen? I've not seen this before today.

Edit: It says "no signal or cable disconnected".
