Black screen power management

Hello,
Here is my problem, yesterday while playing Oblivion my screen went black with a message "Dsub Power Management" (my screen is an LG), but the game was still running because I could still hear the sound.
Anyway, since then I can't turn the computer back on: When I turn it on I hear a beep, and the CPU fan struggles to start, after about 3-4 seconds all the fans are running fine but the screen displays "Dsub Power Management" and then goes to sleep.

I want to point out that my screen works fine when I connect it to another computer, and that when I connect another screen to this computer it doesn’t display anything either.

So I don’t know where this is coming from, I’ve checked all the connections and everything seems okay. I need help, thank you.

Configuration: Windows XP / Firefox 3.6.8

Your power supply doesn't seem to be strong enough apparently.
Have you already played this game before this breakdown?
Have you changed your graphics card?
Give some information if you want help..

I have a 500W power supply and I haven't changed anything in this PC for two years and it has always worked well, so I don't think it's a power supply issue.
