monitors

I just attached a flat screen monitor to my computer, but could not get any display.. Actually, I did get a display but it disappeared after a split second. 

I followed the Dell troubleshooting instructions but the self-test image appears for only a split second and then disappears and the screen goes black..

The green power light comes on and stays on.

When I hook the PC back up to the CRT monitor I get the correct display.

Please let me know what the problem may be and how to correct it.
