It's worth fiddling around with the connector on the back of the monitor and at the back of the computer, I've had this happen and it was
just a loose connection....

Got a monitor here you can have John if it turns out to be the screen rather than the cable
Just needs a 15way lead from the pc to monitor (Did have a look and couldn't find one in my slowly depleting pile of PC related crap here)
It may be that your cable is detachable at the monitor end and this one here will just plug in
It is an old style big CRT and not a flat screen and is almost the size and weight of a Pinto engne, so your desk may need extra triangulation
