Hi,
I have an Asus VE198 monitor that is having some problems.
Setup Background: The Asus monitor is hooked up to one of the vga ports on my GTX580. I have a dual display setup with a ViewSonic monitor using mini hdmi to hdmi (this display has no issues). The Asus monitor is set to a native resolution of 1440 x 900. If I didn't include any important details please let me know.
Problem: After seemingly random amounts of time (sometimes it's minutes / hours, sometimes it's days) the screen will stop displaying anything and simply glow white, as if the polarized film has been removed. Unplugging, holding the power button, and leaving it off for 30 seconds doesn't seem to have an effect, however, unplugging and replugging the vga cable will usually temporarily fix it. Sometimes it will flash white but go back to displaying normally. I have used a few other monitors with this display output before so I believe the output on the graphics card is okay.
What should I try doing to figure out what is wrong with it? Does it seem like a monitor issue or should I purchase another vga adapter and test that?
Any and all advice would be much appreciated,

Any changes in the environment - ambient room temp or anything? If you have different cables - can't hurt to try them
