Monitor issue

Hi,

I've got an LG monitor (LG 236V 23) its about 5 years old and has served me really well. Recently, I've found that it goes it power saving mode and won't display anything from the PC that it has always been plugged into. I've tried different HDMI cables and nothing happens other than it recognises that a cable has been unplugged and when replugged it goes back into power saving mode. I tested my PC on the TV and it worked perfectly. I then tested my laptop against the monitor and it switched out of power saving mode and came to life. I was able to extend the desktop etc.. So the monitor appears to be working but just not with my PC. When it's plugged in, I cannot see it in device manager either in case I wanted to update the driver.

I have ordered another monitor but I'd really like to keep this one going in possible as it was performing just fine.

Any help offered would be greatly appreciated.
 
It magically worked with a dvi cable and the same HDMI cable worked with a new monitor, so now I've gone to a dual screen setup :D
