What could be the problem??

The problem here Fubitzu could be a faulty graphics card, if that is what your friend is using, or a faulty graphics chip on the motherboard if he is using that.

Before we go down this road though have you tried hooking the monitor to a good known working machine to see if the monitor is ok?

If you have already tried this and the monitor is ok then get back to us to tell us what aspect of graphics he is using please.
