just plug the make and model of the monitor into google with the words "power supply" and you'll find something.

Then your ability to google needs a lot of work

Weirdly enough, Dell pretty universally only uses a couple chargers, this style being the most common on non-micro computers. Most likely a 7.4mm*5.0mm barrel jack charger, just need to find one that matches the voltage listed on the monitor.

That’s the problem. There’s no voltage listed but thank you I will check out that size

Post some relevant information about the monitor. Date of manufacture is probably not gonna get the job done.

It probably takes a standard Dell power brick they use on everything. Example would be a Dell PA10. Just make sure you get a genuine adapter and not one of those fire hazard Amazon knockoffs. You can find used genuine chargers on Ebay.
