Delll monitor (Mobel no E151fpb) went blank last night in my prents house, I tried a different power cord and monitor cable. The light on the monitor is blinking. Anyone know what is causing this.

Light blinking usually means it's not getting an input signal.
Check the VGA / DVI cable is connected properly at both ends.

Try connecting the sustect monitor to another (known good) PC. Video card on original machine could have failed!

* Try to Swap the power Cord of the monitor with any other similar power cord.

* You can also try changing the power supply to some other place.
