    Not what I mean. Most modern graphics cards have an extra socket on them to plug in a cable from the power supply unit, sometimes two of them. See this image [clicky]

    Maybe the monitor has a time-out function?

    Those are the normal cables, check your card.

    I don't have any extra power cables on mine either, I use the cheap eVga cards, they never have additional power connections.

    Sorry when i said "normal" i meant just the DVI cable, but for whatever reason it has stopped now and is working just fine. I dont really understand why or how but for the time being my computer is working normally again. Thanks to all who were helping me with this problem.

    The power cables are on the inside of the case, see the picture I linked to. If they are missing, or loose, you will get the symptoms you describe.

    I know what they are, my video card does not use them, but thanks for the help.
