Hi everyone,
as the subject says, I have a problem with my computer: the display doesn't turn off after the configured time set in the active power plan. The screensaver works fine, so it's not that (for example) a mouse is giving random input. Also, when I shut down the computer, the display jumps to powersaving, so the display works fine.
I've already tried a lot of things to solve it and I hope that someone can help because I don't know what to do know....
Things I've tried:
- Set a different time in the power plan, set time time to disabled and enabled again.
- Disable all wakeon devices by using powercfg
- Install a generic monitor driver instead of the Samsun 204B one.
- Use the secondary DVI port
- Update to the latest Nvidia drivers for my 7600GT
- Run Vista with all programs disabled (both tried msconfig and safemode)
- Use the latest BIOS for my motherboard (S3 mode is set to enabled according to powercfg).
- Installed the latest Intel INF files
- Create a new power plan
- Tried a different screensaver
So what can I try now?
thanks!
