Reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac - Apple Support
You are using the same cable that work with the other Macs, right?
With only this monitor connected do you see a boot screen?
If not then make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

May 2, 2016 10:40 AM in response to lllaassby tonydenson,I have just tried resetting both SMC and PRAM, no difference.
No, I don't see a boot screen.
I will take it to the Genius Bar but I'm a little bit sceptical that it's hardware as I would have thought a button not appearing is more like software.
Incidentally I have 4 Mac Minis (all 2014) and I have seen similar problems on all of them, the screen not working after booting up, but usually after a bit of fiddling around it works. It just seems a very temperamental device in this area.
