Computer monitor stuck in sleep mode

So my computer monitor is acting up. It has a completely blank black screen and the power button keeps blinking, and no matter what I try, it refuses to turn on. The monitor’s power button doesn’t do anything when I press it, none of the monitor menu buttons do anything, moving the mouse or hitting keyboard keys does nothing, I tried turning the computer itself off and on, that didn’t work, I tried disconnecting the cord connecting the monitor to the computer AND the actual power cord for the monitor, and that didn’t work either, as soon as I reconnected it went back into sleep mode. I’m out of ideas, does anyone else have any?

Typed from my phone, in case anyone was wondering how I typed this when the monitor won’t turn on.

It's sleepy. Let it rest! *shot*

In all actuality, that sounds concerning. O.o What were you doing on your computer before it decided to poop out?

I wasn’t doing anything too out of the ordinary, mostly just stuff I usually do. I had a moment like this yesterday where it wouldn’t wake up, but even then, it eventually just turned on by itself. No such luck here. I just woke up this morning and it wouldn’t turn on.

Also, I should clarify that the computer itself seems to be working fine. It’s the monitor that’s not cooperating.

Take a hammer to it. It won't be on sleep mode anymore. On the downside, it won't be on any mode anymore. But hey at least it solves your problem! :)

Pfft, fake. How can you post it here if you don’t have a functioning monitor?

Okay, apparently my monitor just didn't feel like working yesterday, 'cause now it's working fine. Yeah. I didn't do anything different, I just waited it out and eventually it just decided to start working again.

Did you take a hammer to it? Either way, you should take a hammer to it.
