    Monitor goes into sleep mode when set to never


    I have the monitor set to never go into sleep mode in power options, but it still shuts off after about 10 minutes. I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

    Welcome

    Check your settings again. It may not be sleep mode, it can be the monitor turning off.

    Make sure that your monitor is not set to turn off. In addition, make sure that this is not a feature of your particular computer.

    I have checked all the settings, if there is no activity the monitor will go into sleep mode in about 10 mins. As soon as I move the mouse it will wake up. I also checked the settings on the monitor and there is no auto sleep provision. Thanks. Stream.

    Problem solved. My monitor has what is called eco-mode which automatically cuts the power from 37 watts to 7 watts, and it can not be turned off. The monitor is a viewsonic VX2433WM. Thanks richc46 for your post.

    Glad that I could help. Its ironic, your problem was actually a feature that you paid for. Enjoy, Seven.
