Solve : Odd Monitor Problem?

1.	Solve : Odd Monitor Problem?
Answer» After brining my computer out of SLEEP mode my monitor power light flashes and there is no display. I have a 19 inch LCD wide screen that is about a year OLD. The SVGA cable has a 6' extension. I plugged in my laptop and the monitor (bypassing the extension) came on fine. Tried with the extension in place, power light flashes, no display. Replaced the extension, no change. As long as the desktop or laptop is plugged into the monitor without the extension, all is well. May computer is running XP Service pack 2 with NVIDIA GeForce MX/MX 400. Other than monitor replaced about a year ago, no changes for several years.I'd replace the extension cable, for the fact that it use to work and now it doesnt, and when introduced it causes the problem... DaveThank you for the reply. I replaced the extension cable TWICE with HIGH quality SVGA cables, same problem. Computer store said monitor was “going out “ and was requiring high input voltage. Anyone have a better idea?
