Does the monitor show standby lights (usually yellow or orange-like) with something like "No Input" on the screen, or is the monitor just staying powerless?

If it's the former, it's probably just a bad lead or connection to the computer itself. Have a tech-savvy friend look at it or ask around in an electronics store with a computer department (as I see it, this isn't something to really pay a tech to look at) about it to validate.

If it's the latter, your monitor is not receiving power at all, and that could be a multitude of reasons. Fried hardware, broken lights, etc., and that's when you do need someone with certification to look at it. If they confirm it's dead, then it'll have to be replaced. Sometimes it's an easy fix too.
