monitor control menu is locked

I have a Dell M782p monitor and the control menu keeps getting locked at random times for no apparent reason. I haven't tried to lock it before, and I've followed the instructions on the Dell website to unlock it, but it never unlocks when I hold down the button, it just seems to do it after a few days. Another thing about it that I don't think is supposed to be happening is that after the "Attention | control menu is locked" message appears, the menu comes up and disappears after a few seconds, and it goes back to the locked message. Holding the menu button down doesn't work, I've tried it a hundred times, so please don't tell me to do that.

If you can help it would be great.

Thanks,
Steeb

Check for 7805 in the processor section. Replace it.

Remove key PCB and check if problem resolves Moisture in PCB or defective switches can cause such problems.
