I'm using a Dell p2213 monitor with a vga converter to my mac. I use an ASUS monitor at work with no issues. On the dell, it is continuously going into power saving mode and then seconds later coming back to normal. I can't take it anymore and don't want to have to buy a new monitor.

I've checked the VGA connection and it's not loose.
I've tried shutting down and restarting.

Well it's:
1. the monitor
2. the cable
3. the adapter
4. the computer

Do you have another computer you can use to check the monitor?
