My other computers monitors button wont stop blinking

When I turn on the monitor the power button won't stop blinking and the screen doesn't show up. Also it makes this click sound everytime. Is there a way I can fix this?

I'm guessing you're talking about a desktop computer with a separate monitor, not a laptop..?

If you have two computers, move the monitor that's having a problem to the computer that's working and see if the monitor works on that one.
If it has the same problem, then it's the monitor that's broken and needs to be fixed.
If the monitor works OK on the other computer, then it's the computer the monitor used to be hooked up to that has the problem.

Another thing to try is to take tie monitor from the computer that works (again assuming it's not a laptop) and hook it up to the computer that's having a problem.
If it works OK, then it's the monitor from the broken system that's the problem.
If it doesn't work, then it's the second computer that needs to be fixed.

Ooo this is what used to happen to my old piece-of-crap computer. Had to get a new motherboard and such. Turned out to be a waste of money because that computer was a piece of crap to begin with.

So get a new computer. Don't bother trying to fix it if it costs money.
