Reset your monitor to factory settings.

 

didnt work....

 

ok, perhaps your monitor is dying, or it could be something else. Try reinstalling/updating your graphics drivers. Also try the monitor on a different system if you can.

 

Make sure that your GPU is correctly plugged in.

Then check that all cords from Monitor to GPU is plugged in correctly and tightened. If the connections are loose you get the error of the monitor trying to Sync with the computer and failing then just going on stand-by mode.
