Hi, I have a solution - don't stomp you foot there ;-)

But seriously you will have a dodgy connection somewhere possibly between your pc and monitor.
Does the screen come back on?
Has the PC crashed at this point?

the stomping were only an example..

nope the screen does not come back on..
i think the pc is still running, it's just that i don't see anything

1-Try Checking Monitor Cable
2- Open the case and make sure if the video card is not loose.
3.Check power supply connections.

Good Luck

Indeed, almost certainly a loose cable or a loose component in the Montitor/Computer.

Do not however check inside the monitor, just rule everything else out first.

Monitor power indicator still on?
You could go to command line before you stomp, then see if you have disk lite when you run a directory listing. Would cut the possibilities down.
