Screensaver, monitor and PC standby issues.
All of a sudden, my PC refuses to:
1) run screensaver automatically
2) put the monitor to standby (timer now set to 1 minute for testing purposes)
3) enter S3 sleep mode (timer now set to 1 minute for testing purposes)
Manually running the screensaver or putting the PC to sleep works fine. I've seen a lot of reports of this happening, and I've tried many thing already:
Nothing is showing for powercfg.exe - requests.
powercfg.exe -energy shows a bunch of "USB Suspend:USB Device not Entering Suspend" errors, but this is also the case on another PC that has no issues with entering sleep, so I am disregarding this for now.
One interesting error, not showing on the other PC, is this one:
But it gets me nowhere. Any ideas before I re-image the OS to a backup from last week, when sleep worked automatically and without issues?Platform Power Management Capabilities:PCI Express Active-State Power Management (ASPM) Disabled
PCI Express Active-State Power Management (ASPM) has been disabled due to a known incompatibility with the hardware in this computer.
Edit:
Also, these 3 other warnings may be of interest. Mind you, I don't have any wireless network adapter in my PC and I've just turned off my bluetooth dongle but the 802.11 error is still there:
But I guess none of the errors/warnings explain why not even my fricking monitor is able to enter sleep....Platform Timer Resolution:Platform Timer Resolution
