I have a Dell 15 inch flat panel monitor that is about 4 yrs. old. It takes about 2 minutes before the screen will come on after starting the computer or waking it up. Any ideas why this is happening? The video card is checking out good.
 
Hmm

Is it gradual...meaning does it start of dimm and go up in brightness over time or does it simply not "kick in" 2 minutes from the start. In the first case, it could be the backlight breaking down.

It starts with the black screen then in about 2 minutes it will appear in full color,not gradual
