Some info:
I've had this LCD for about 10 months now (since I started my new job) and this problem has happened off and on a few dozen times. The monitor is connected via DVI-D to my Dell dock.

The problem:
When either monitor or laptop is on and I turn the other on, I get no picture on the monitor (all black). I don't even get the overlay text that shows which input you've selected when you change inputs. However, the power button lights up green when it's on and getting a signal, and orange when it can't find a signal and goes to stand-by. Even though there's no picture, I can cycle through the inputs and the power button will stay green for one of the inputs.

Like I said, this has been happening occasionally over the last 10 months, but it's always started working again if I turn the monitor off/on once or twice.
Now I've been trying all morning and can't get it to work.

Any suggestions?
