check the connections properly !

have you any heating problem ? check with speedfan ?

Dude, how do u say ur monitor blinks and still ur able to get to the desktop.

Anyway hope this helps, check on the monitor cables and insert them properly in the slot and reinstall the OS again as some files seem to be corrupt.

Get back here with the follow up

Have you tried going in safe mode. Something similar happened to me after a virus crippled my system.
Have you loaded any new softwares right before this happened. Go and uninstall them in safe mode.

Hmmm
Monitor is blinking.
Does it go totally blank and led start blinking after entering the windows GUI.
If yes then then there is incompatibility between your sys resolution and refresh rate you have set.
If this is the problem then boot in safe mode and set refresh rate to the adapter default(60 hz in most cases)
If this is not the case then you means you get display when entering the GUI but monitor blinks.
If thats the case then check for any magnetic field in close proximity of your monitor.
Also uninstall your graphics adapter and set it to the
standard microsoft vga graphics.Check if the problem persists.
Now install your agp drivers with the latest version from the vendors website.
