Re: Dell U3011 no display after a few minutes

Registered to add the thread, and to say thanks.

Have had my Dell U3011 for about 5 years second hand. My gf has been using it for work for the last 2 years or so, and it failed yesterday.

I have noticed increased electrical 'humming' from the monitor for a couple of months, and yesterday we had a power cut due to lightning. The monitor's power and LED buttons were illuminated, but the screen would not turn on. Shortly after the buttons would not illuminate anymore. N.B. it was plugged into a surge protector....
