wrightflyer1903,
No. We would just replace it while under warranty. Is yours under warranty?

It seems the 24 suffers from this issue. You will need to turn the power button slightly to get it to operate. This is caused by a small plastic part holding the button in position breaking.
If you do a search on my forum name you should come across a thread explaining the problem and how to fix it. Something along the lines of "once you find the correct position for the button, place a piece of selotape over it to stop it rotating".

As Slammer99uk said - The Power button does not work if the button turns right of left more than 5 degrees. If under warranty, get the monitor replaced by Dell. If out of warranty, take a clear piece of tape and stick it over the button (I pointed to noon) to keep it from rotating.

I had that happen on a 1901. In my case, I fidled with the housing and it snapped back into place...though I was preparred to relace it if it didn't work! Needless to say, I'm a bit more careful with how I push it now, though I haven't had any other issues.
