Murphy's law. It could be that the monitor is at fault. And that this fault

such things happen – sometimes when you expect it least.
Have you checked the monitor with another computer?
I had it once that the connector of the graphics card was unfirm – or was it
the one on the VGA cable? Don't remember, but it worked with one computer,
whereas it didn't with the other. Only this one monitor.
The original post notes it used to boot to the login screen until I
plugged the HD in a SATA Channel on which it won't work.
The monitor works, it's a dual input monitor, and the Linux on the VGA
works. I may swap the video card, but I'm not convinced it has anything
to do with it.
