My son's computer is acting up. When booting the monitor goes into sleep

Do you mean it starts off OK but when it gets to a certain point in the boot
process it goes into sleep mode? If so, that is almost certainly because the
refresh rate setting in windows is set too high for your monitor, is it
possible it has been changed?.
Try booting in safe mode, going into the graphics card's properties dialogue
and setting the refresh to 60Hz. Reboot normally and see what happens. If
that fixes it, try upping the refresh rate to 70 or 72 Hz.
