Try going into the BIOS on boot and look to see if it is set wrong. To access BIOS, you USUALLY, but not always, tap the Del or F2 key once or twice a second while booting up. This depends on your BIOS and PC model. also, seem to me that if you move your mouse or hit a key the monitor should come out of power save. Try right clicking on the desktop and going to properties. Changing a setting(power options, screen saver, etc.) in there may fix the problem.
