Do you see the Dell splash screen before it says out of sync, or does it automatically say that it's out of sync?
If you get to Windows, then it says out of sync, then it's just running too high of a hz, and you can go to display properties in safe mode and change that to a lower number.
If it happens from the get go, try reseating the video cable to the card, and check the pins to ensure none are bent or broken.
If that still happens, try the monitor on a second system. If the monitor is cool on the second machine, your looking at a bad video card, or a card that is working on going bad.
