I think your solution lies there. With the thing running OK with the monitor turned off, measure the voltages on the cable's lines and then wire up a dummy cable (or just connector) to simulate the turned-off monitor. If your lucky (I I suspect you will be), you'll just need to wire a pin or two to ground, but maybe to 5 volts. You can probably get access to the "pins" with the case open somewhere between the real pins and the motherboard. Good luck.
