cant see what im doing!

Feb 21, 2004 7:02PM PST

i was browsing the web yesterday and as i was doing this, my moniter told me that the screen was "going to suspend" and there were multi-coloured lines in the background blocking the view of what i was doing. The moniter then went to suspend at i got the little blinking LED telling me in on suspend but i cant get it out of suspend. The computer is still running though. Is this a hardware problem or a software problem. Could it be a virus? Because i have been using KaZaA and downloading programs.
please help

But here's a simple test to see where the issue is.

Put the monitor on another machine or the machine on another monitor to see where the issue is.
