My monitor is a dell Ultra sharp ( actually I have several doing the same thing) when I plug it in to a PC or Laptop it will for a second display it is in power save mode or sleep mode press any key or move mouse to wake up.But it never wakes up. I can turn it off and on and keep getting the same msg no matter what monitor I use of this model

Next time you reset, check both the monitor settings and your BIOS settings for wake up
SOURCE: In power save mode
The monitor is not receiving signal from the computer. Is the power light on on the computer? If so - press and hold power button on computer until the power light goes off, then press again to restart. If the computer starts and you still have no picture it is most likely a video card or motherboard problem.

Just had the same problem... what worked for me was simple. Unplug the cable from the monitor, hit the power button a few times until Dell screen poped up with a few color bars because it knew it was no longer connected to a PC. Then plugged the cable back in and all was fixed.
SOURCE: monitor goes to sleep and never wakes up
if you are on the desktop, right click and choose nvdia control panel and choose the nview display mode to use. select only use one display(single) maybe your input signal is in the wrong selection.just try it maybe it will help
SOURCE: it turns off, or goes to sleep. Won't wake up.
Hello there topothemorni,
Are you familiar with Windows' "Power Options" module, and that within it you can tweak all things related to power saving (e.g., system sleep, hibernate, and automatic MONITOR shut off)? More than likely you just need to make a visit there and make some desired adjustments.
[Control Panel > Power Options]
... OR ...
Start > Run > type "powercfg.cpl" (without quotes), then hit Enter.
Once there, you'll probably find most everything self-explanatory.
Also, it may be responding to configurations adjustable from within the monitor itself. Somewhere on the monitor there will be a OSD (On Screen Display / Setup) button of some type, where from there you'll be able to make whatever necessary tweaks. Refer to its documentation if you don't find it self-explanatory.
Good luck and please let me know if you have any further questions, and/or just to let me know how things worked out.
