Exactly what do you see on screen? If nothing, it's hardware. Otherwise tell us what is going on and what you have tried.

does any sound come from the computer? does the monitor work?

if the answer is no to those then it's the hardware
if sound does come from the computer , but you don't see nothing then it's only the monitor.
if the answer to the first question is nol but to the second yes then buy anopther computer

The monitor was blank, and heard no sound when the PC is powered on.

I have used the monitor on another linux PC which is working.

The reset button has stuck. Disconnect it from the main board.
