Hello willemplaisier,
I am from Dell Social Media and Community.
It may be possible for the screen to go on sleep mode, try to change the power settings on your system.
If this does not help, try to connect a known good working monitor to verify if the issue is with the monitor or the video card.
Let me know if you need any further assistance, I will be glad to help you.
