    Monitor and sleep mode


    I would like my monitor to stay on all the time. I have set all the area's that I can find to leave the monitor on in W7. But after 15mins. the monitor will turn off. Is there a area that I might have missed? Thanks!

    Did you go to control panel>power options>display settings>turn off monitor (never)

    Power Plan Settings - Change

    Monitor


    I did that and I also went one step belond that and did each power setting. Setting the display, HDD, sleep mode and saved all the setting. The monitor still turns off, LOL.. I just built this computer a month ago and I am using a ASUS MB M4A79XTD EVO. I posted a note to their forum asking if the MB BIOS has any controls that make the monitor turn off. No reply back yet?? My monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster 216W. Using W7 it's a PnP setup. I check to see if there are any drivers for the monitor on Samsung's drivers updates, and of course there are none. So the only way I can see to control this problem is using W7's setting.

    does the monitor itself not have a menu button? it might be getting controlled?
    also i found the driver for your monitor
    Support - LCD 216BW | Samsung Monitors

    bottom of the page, click "manuals and downloads" then the blue driver button, then the blue .exe button, if you still cant find it i will host on my mediafire acc for you
