SOURCE: No display, light goes green but on screen says no
here is the simple test to detect hardware malfunction.
on every monitor these days whether its CRT or LCD already programmed inside self test.
detach your cable data to CPU and power on your monitor. if its displayed self test on your screen mean its OK and something wrong with your CPU, could be VGA error.
if its just black display mean some is wrong with your monitor.
if you post more detail maybe we in FIXYA could help.
thanks.

I'm having the same problem: Intermittently when I press the power button, it doesn't really turn on. The green power light just blinks, the display does not light up or show anything, and the speakers emit a popping sound (synchronized to the green light blinking). Seems like it is trying to start up, failing, and then trying again, again, etc.
If I leave it off for a long time, and try again later, sometimes it is fine. That does not count as a fix, of course.
