Dell LCD monitor reverts to power-saving mode
Hi,
I have an older Dell LCD-type monitor which reverts to power-saving mode immediately upon startup.
Is there an easy fix or are we talking major surgery here?

This is while connected to the pc, that is up and running? Move the mouse, does it come back up, or stay in sleep mode? You might check the programming of the monitor itself to see if it has the sleep set abnormally short. (long shot) Another monitor on the same PC works just fine? If so, your almost better off to trash the older monitor since the cost to repair could be close to if not over the cost of a new one.
