Most likely a power supply component has aged and thus changed value and/or failed. Take it to a reputable repair person.

We have a 32 in lcd dell tv with sound no picture...

Yes, either a new back light, or a new inverter (the circuit inside the TV that powers the back light): http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120540641447&rvr_id=&crlp=1_263602_263622&UA=WVF%3F&GUID=a4a3861a1240a0aad0b022b0ffee21c3&itemid=120540641447&ff4=263602_263622

It looks like the parts for your TV are readily available online (unusual), but I couldn't find the backlight itself, sorry.

Dell w3201c frozen screen

You could try a power drain:  Unplug the TV's power cable so that the TV is not grounded to the house.  Then press and hold in the TV's own power button in for one minute to drain the capacitors.  Plug the TV back in and see if it made a difference.  If not, it would appear that the software in your TV's mainboard is corrupt and would need to be serviced.

23 inch lcd tv by dell wont turn on as if no power

if this is a DELL W3201C read this.

Have the same model and same problem
probably It is a bad inverter board, in my case one of the 16 transformers is burnt out on the inverter board. still trying to find a replacement component. if not replacing the board is the only option or getting the inverter board repaired.

by the way, this TV has a Samsung panel: model LTA320W2-L03. so it needs parts for a Samsong not a DELL.
DELL does not manufacture or fix them becuase they don't make them
