Hi guys I have a situation with an old game rig redeployed as an office system. Two monitors on the DVI Ports of a Radeon HD 4800 card, the #1 being a super-wide LG. Unfortunately we had to use an HDMI adapter in both cases. After both worked for awhile 1 dropped and went black, unresponsive to kid/pointer. So it looks on surface like the situation with my own ASUS 24” which has its own ideas about sleep and must be power cycled to resync... but I think may not be that straightforward.

Have any of you seen this before and happen to know a cure?
I’ll work on it this morning and will be looking at power settings etc but I’m concerned that pin mapping from dvi to HDMI may be at fault but no clue how to diagnose

Thanks for this. I found my issue is not solved yet. LG just posted new drivers and new utility for the 21:9 ultra wide. Going to try again
