screen saver froze on monitor

[mofins]

a picture from my screen saver is frozen on my Dell monitor and I can't figure out how to get my monitor back. My laptop screen is working fine but my 2nd screen (monitor) is frozen with the screen saver picture

have you tried turning off the monitor, then unplugging the hdmi cord wait about 10 seconds then plug it back in and hold the monitors power button for about 5 seconds
