Welcome to the Republic of Gamers forums, coalminer07.

Please list your complete system specs. And are you using a DVI cable or a DVI adapter?

What you need to ensure is that you have the power cables connected to your video card, and that your monitor is set to the correct input.
To help us help you - please provide as much information about your system and the problem as possible.

try using the other DVI plug on your video card, sometimes I have that too, especially since I started running 2 video cards. I mean when it works it works solid, but when you switch the DVI<-> monitor plug on video card (e.g. between DVI-I vs DVI-D or between video cards) especially on running system then the black screen welcomes, once or twice I saw it at startup too after swapping ports on cards (or between cards, can't remember). 600 series video cards you running perhaps? they can do that to you sometimes ...
