This 17" Dell monitor, model number CN-0M1609-4633-3AG-2DTL, will
power on when AC is first applied.
In the middle of the screen appears, "Dell Genesis
Display Perfection." Then it disappears after a second. When you
press the power button with no input signal, the Dell self test
feature check illuminates in the bottom left corner of the display.
You can see the red, green, blue, and white bars within the self test
box. Then, it starts to scroll diagonally up to the right for about a
second and then the display turns off. The power light remains on. If
you hook it up to a PC, you do
not
get any display. The boards are in good condition and I reflowed the
solder
over many of the components with no improvement.

Why did you reflow solder? Were there bad joints or intermittents?

Any ideas what might
be going on here?
