Hello, I recently purchased a G5 1.8 with 512 RAM and a 19" MAG LCD monitor. If you're not familiar with it, here's a link to it at Best Buy:

Here's my problem. Occasionally, when I try to wake up my computer from sleep mode by clicking the mouse button, the monitor will just keep switching between analog mode and digital mode rapidly and then say, “no input signal found”. The cable in the back is fine on both ends. I go through analog because I don’t have the digital converter or whatever else I need to use to connect it to the G5.
My solution so far: Restart. But I see that as a poor solution. And it still doesn’t fix it every time. Sometimes it takes a couple reboots. Turning just the monitor on and off doesn’t fix it, nor does unplugging its cables.
The only other thing is that I have the screen res set to 1280 X 960 which is less than the max resolution of 1280 x 1024. I think it’s at 75 Hz. And I have the mid grade video card installed, the Radeon 9600 Pro.
Anybody seen or heard of this with this particular monitor or any other monitor? This is my first computer with an external monitor. All my previous Macs have been stand alones so it’s possible I just don’t know what I’m doing.
Thanks.
