"For those of you who don't want to spend +$100 on a 150W adapter may want to give this a try:
It turns out the middle pin in the power connector is a ground. When it read an incorrect voltage it makes the displays inverter turn off to protect the unit. One way to circumvent this is to cover the middle pin in the cord going from the monitor to the power brick. I used a piece of paper in the shape of a "W" covering just the middle pin.

Once i did this the monitor popped on and all was good in the world... " from Jakobeon in Apple discussion forum
