driver... or video card would be my first guess.

Contact DELL and ask for a replacement!!! This seems like a safety-hazard issue and I am sure these issues should be dealt with a replacement only.

you mayhave a hardware iwwue with the video inverter.  If it's a dell run the 32 bit diagnostics.  The first part will tell you if you have an inverter issue.  If you do then contact the manufactruer if your under warentee.

well it may have the power settings to turn off monitor after a short period, start it up again, lay on the F-8 key to go into Safe mode,,,, and you can check the settings for the power down on the monitor,  Otherwise,,, if you had System restore activated while your in safe mode you should be able to restore to previous point,  Otherwise,,  if you have a brand name laptop Dell, HP, etc If you dont have the factory restore discs I would call them and ask for some, I bought a used Dell 2 months ago, no restore discs came with it, I contacted them online and they sent me new ones, if you dont have a brand name laptop, then you may need to have a full version, since you mention it "Formats" ,  But also you need to have the drivers for your CD Rom on the disc otherwise the CD Rom wont have anyway to continue on and read the disc you put in there for it to read,,,   If you dont have a disc with a bootable version, IM or E-M me and I can maybe help you out,

What kind of display do you have?  LCD or CRT.  Sometime your monitor won't do certain resolution.  I believe your card should always be able to support lower resolution.  My guess is that you may have a hardware incompatibility problem.  May be update your driver software from Dell will help.\n\nGood luck.

frist press f8 while booting and choose safe mode. in the safe mode check whats the problem. go with normal boot ...chk display driver and may be this currupted so suggesting reinstall this. change ur monitor resolution frequency also if selected wrong one.\n\ngood luck!!!

This seems to be a  common problem, First check the pins, and the connection. If the problem still exists, next inspect the cable running from the computer to the monitor for pinches, or cuts. If anything is noticed, depending on the model monitor you have you might be able to replace the cable. If this doesn't work, bad news, sometimes you can find a monitor, or T.V. repair shop that might be able to help you out but most of the time it is cheaper to just buy a new monitor.

It sounds like the connector from the monitor to the back of your computer isn't completely attached, or you may have bent one of the pins on the connector.  Remove it, check for bent pins and -carefully- straighten any that may be damaged, then reconnect.

If you don't even get the dell splash screen after replacing a video card, I would try reseating all the power cables going to the mother board. If you still get no video, then maybe you can get a pci video card to use just to get by. Make sure your following ESD procedure when installing parts (you might be frying the part before it even gets into the system).

I think every thing is OK.\nIf you see nothing on monitor than reinstall the AGP Card, RAMs  into the motherboard. \nCheck each connections into the motherboard and reinstall Windows. \nHope it will solve the problem other wise you will have to visit a technician.\nGood Luck!

Just press any of the keys on the keyboard. Even then if ur monitor is not on , then check the power button of monitor.\nHope it will solve the problem

Easy, have them buy you a new monitor.  LCDs can have problems if too much pressure is applied.

It deffently sounds like something went bad inside of the monitor. CRT are never really cost effective to fix, even if it is a cheap part the labor will always cost alot, some of the replacement parts can actually cost more then what you origionally paid for the monitor.

Look in your yellow pages for a computer technician, or send the laptop to dell for repair. It may not be the moniter, it could be a video card also.  Places like Best Buy or CompUSA seem reluctant to work on laptops.

It is possible that your problem might be coming from your video card.  Try testing the monitor on another computer to see if it recreates the same problem.  If that is the case you might need to get another video card.  If not, I personally would pitch the monitor and get another one.  Unless you know a lot about electronics messing around with it is ill advised.  There are large capacitors inside monitors that can seriously injure you.\n\nHope this helps and GL :-)
