It could be either - which is not very helpful.
The easiest way to check would be to try another monitor. If it continues it's the video card. If not it's the monitor.
Also does it only happen when playing a game or does it go off anytime. Does the machine re-boot/shutdown or do you just get a blank screen. If it's caused by running some graphics intensive game it is more likely to be the video card.

exaccel(3alleg4) Allegro manual exaccel(3alleg4)
NAME
exaccel - Using offscreen video memory to store source graphics for VBE/AF. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
Example exaccel
DESCRIPTION
This program demonstrates how to use an offscreen part of the video memory to store source graphics for a hardware accelerated graphics
driver. The example loads the `mysha.pcx' file and then blits it several times on the screen. Depending on whether you have enough video
memory and Allegro supports the hardware acceleration features of your card, your success running this example may be none at all, sluggish
performance due to software emulation, or flicker free smooth hardware accelerated animation.
