does it happen when you turn on your computer ?

ok 90 % thats the probelm

first of all your bios startup start from

hdd
cd rom -> this is when the hdd goes non detected so it will go to cd rom insert system disk blabla
floppy ( maybe )

so you gotta check your CPU inside not the monitor

and try to replug the harddisk ( maybe its not tight enough ) ?

or is it because of your cable ? that is connected to your primary

Have you done anything to your computer recently?  Such as add new hardware, moved, new driver install, bios upgrades.....

Sounds like your harddrive is almost shot. You could try a repair install of XP with the operating system disk but chances are more than likely that'll do nothing. Backup everything on your computer while it still functions.
