I am using this monitor for ~ 2 years.
when starting monitor shows desktop with tools bars & everything is fine.
Once or twice monitor don't respond, no communication with tower @ all.
Dell has given me this problem with monitors before. Monitor not responding.
Can you help?
Either hardware or software or firmware is your issue or a combo of the three. I'd swap a known working monitor and see if that works.
