Re: blue box with padlock in it
Here's some info from another board that may be of help....
=========================================================================================
Many monitors have an on-screen display lock (the padlock icon) that seems to get stuck.
Various suggestions are in the links below - the one that seems to work most often is to hold the monitor's menu button down for 15-20 seconds to get the screen menu, then either try unlocking the OSD (On Screen Display) or do a factory reset on the monitor.

Different monitors have slightly different menus, but if it's a Dell monitor you can find the manual below (under Display):
