I have a fixed image
Well, it certainly is related. This is OSD (On Screen Display) for adjustment, activated by those pushbuttons.
Did you try to completely unplug the power cable from the monitor for a minute and then reattaching it?
One of those pushbuttons may have got stuck in a depressed position, check if all of them click properly when pressed; sweet drinks spilled and dried off can make a button stick, and sometimes the plastic itself may develop enough friction for a button to stay in a depressed position.
If all the buttons work freely, the monitor may need professional servicing.
I am unable to turn
If none of the button are working then it could mean that one of the buttons is stuck or there is an issue with the board on the monitor itself.
Unplug the monitor from power and the computer. Make sure none of the buttons are stuck down, plug only power back in to the monitor and see what it shows. Plug it back into the computer and check to see if the problem returns
Windows logon screen flashes for 6 minutes
After the 6 minutes, what happens? Does Windows finally load? Does it power OFF?
Let's assume Windows eventually does load. The problem wouldn't be the monitor, instead look at your boot devices. You "could" have a USB Flash drive installed on your computer and that may affect the boot process. Try removing any external USB drives from your computer and try booting again. If it does load quicker, you have to check the internal configuration / setup screens on your computer. There is a boot sequence or boot order sequence that needs to be altered.
Monitor won't turn on. Checked all connections.
Try another plug socket, may be a issue with the wall socketitself.
If not, try changing the fuse in the plug, may not beapplicable if you live in the USA.
If not try another power cable.
If the problem continues, contact manufacture

If you are going to DIY and already try the monitor with another PC, and have proper tools and know safety precaution then please read on:
Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply (they should be replaced in a set), 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 ACER monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/albums/yy352/budm/

The
dark screen with faint, hard to see display is due to the failure of
CCFL
(Cold Cathode Florecent Lamp), which is the back light or the Inverter
board, which provides high voltage to the CCFL. So, it is recommended
that you get it properly checked by any professional for replacement of
CCFL.
Also, refer here to my earlier solution to a similar problem, which was rated as very helpful

I HAVE RED DOTS ALL
Could be whats known as dead pixels, this is tested be showing up a black or white screen. Microsoft paint or word will do. If an area always has dots then dead pixel. However if it doesn't constantly remain a dot then, some-thing else. Dead pixels come about due to age.
A technician will be able to diagnose your problem by performing white screen test.

MONITOR SCREEN SUDDENLY WENT OFF
It sounds like the lcd screen module itself has a problem and the only way to fix it is to replace the screen. Not usually worth fixing since replacing the part usually cost more than buying a new monitor. Sorry.
There is red dots all
I'm afraid that it sounds like the monitor wont last much longer. It could be that the control board is failin and pixels are getting stuck, but it would be more economical to replace the monitor.
