Everytime I restart my computer, my monitor looks like a bad cable signal. I constantly have to turn the monitor off and on for it to go away.

anyone else getting this?

sounds like a monitor problem. what makes you think that turning the monitor on and off, a separate piece of hardware has anything to do with the computer?
 
What's the monitor? If it's an Apple 30", is it the green/blue shimmering pixels issue? If so, check out this thread - it's been going for 3 years now with 457 posts and still no solution. :(

good point. I tried hooking it up with my lcd tv and it's fine.
The monitor im having problems with is an HP w2007. It was working fine with my powermac just before this
