Displayport no signal issue (Dell U2412M)

Hello,

I've been trying to connect a 2-year-old Dell U2412M to my new XPS 8930 desktop (ordered GTX1070) using displayport to displayport cable. Yet the monitor simply returned a no signal window and went into power save within seconds.

I tried to unplug the cable from both the monitor and desktop - since it takes a bit of force to unplug, I assume that the cable had been plugged in properly.

I haven't been able to use my new desktop for two weeks since it arrived because of this \ ://

Anyone has any idea what went wrong and how to fix this? Many thanks!
