If you have another monitor I would plug it in to see if the problem duplicates. Chances are you do not and I have had the same problem you are describing several times at work and it usually turns out to be the video card. You can get then from 35 dollars on up to several hundred tiger direct or new egg .com are both good websites that are trustworthy, also make sure you know which type to get AGP, PCI, or PCI express.
