Hi,
Maybe your monitor's having trouble getting power. Try plugging it out, and then in again. If that's not working, call you're monitor's manufacturer (if you don't know the number, try searching on the internet). Or maybe that's not the case. Maybe your PC takes time sending the signal to monitor. Call the computer's manufacturer (if you don't know the number, try searching on the internet). Hope that helps,
Daniel

No sync could mean the computer is generating signal at a frequency that cannot be supported by the monitor. As soon as Windows starts to boot, press F8 to display the boot menu. One of the choices will be VGA mode. Select it, boot into Windows, then set your resolution/refresh low. Reboot into normal Windows mode. If you now get display, then set the resolution/frequency to your liking (as long as supported by your monitor).

Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply, blown fuses, poor solder joints, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums

the bezel is hook up to the panel.. to open most LCD.. you will need to pry slightly... it takes time to figure out where to pry.

the problem is the power supply of your main board...you can replace the bulging/leak capacitors...to acces the power supply open the back cover of your tv..the power supply board is the pcboard which the mains supply is connected..you can also replace the whole power supply with a new one..resolder the board for its loose connections..

hope this helps good luck..

please rate my help...tnx for using fixya.

Monitor does not need sound driver, just think of it as nothing more than powered PC speakers mounted inside monitor case. You need correct sound card driver in the PC to get sound.
Testing monitor speakers: use an MP3 player to feed to monitor audio line input (Green jack) using audio cable with mini stereo male phone jack at both ends (try Radio Shack) , set the volume on the monitor half way. If you get the sound OK, then the problem is in the PC setup.

If you run WIndows 7, yes. Otherwise make sure your video card has correct driver installed.

Use these two sites, service repair manual, and a how to repair dell monitors website.

right click on the taskbar and see if
"lock the taskbar" has a check next to it. if it does, click on that and it unlocks it and you should be able to move it then

I will assume that it does the same with other PC as well.

You are going to need an AC adapter and VGA cable.

The manual for this monitor lists its native resolution as 1280X1024. At resolutions below this, display quality may suffer because the image may not line up with the pixels of the display. This resolution may not be supported by the integrated video in many computers.

The other settings (color temperature, brightness, etc.) are based on your personal preference. Whatever looks good to you is the "best".

I assume that you have already try it on another PC with the same result.

my lcd srceen reads NO SYNC when plug into my laptop, what does thi mean

What is the problem with monitors? Flashes on then goes black? See example of failed (most) monitors due to bad caps: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums

A few steps you can do to try to remedy this:

1. Is the monitor on? Sounds simple, but it's happened to me before! 8)

2. Try another monitor. If it works fine, then it is clearly your monitor that is the problem, and not the graphics card in your computer.

3. If it is your monitor, try using another signal cable or another power cable. Unfortunately, if neither of these solves the issue, the problem is most likely within the monitor, and will not be easy to fix (read: you will most likely have to replace the monitor).

Good luck!

Here is the web link to the manufacture's website and manual for this model lcd:

You may have shorted out the AC plug. You'll need to test it for continuity by using a voltmeter.

If it is shorted out, then you'll need to have the plug replaced.

First connect your scanner to computer with usb cable.
Then insert disk in rom then install driver and software from disk.
It is not matter that first you connect scanner or install driver but if you connect scanner first your computer recognized it then you can install driver from disk.
Let me know if you need further assistance.
Thanks for using FixYa.
