Hi
I have a PC running Vista Ultimate and the monitor keeps going blank and the blue ON switch changes to an orange Off/Standby colour, all I have to do to switch it back on is push the sleep button on my keyboard twice, once does nothing that I can tell
This does not happen in any orderly fashion, sometimes it will do it 20 minutes after switching the PC on, sometimes it can take 2 to 10 hours, sometimes more, before it happens.
I have tried the monitor on another PC and it ran three days without issue, I then turned it off and put it back on this PC.
Things I have done to sort this out are.
1) I check that power management control panel is not set to sleep, hibernate or switch off, all being set to Never or off so it does not activate the function.
2) I ran extended Memtest in dos and Windows Memory Diagnostics for several hours and no RAM errors were found.
3) I tested the hard drive in Seatools for dos, extended test and no error were found.
4) I ran the FUR Graphics Card Stress test and no issues were found, I have a 512 Meg nVidia card 3 years old
Does anyone know what else I should do or give an idea of the problem hare.
Any help appreciated.
Regards
Daniel
