I am reposting this under a different title.

I had my display settings set to shut my monitor off after 45 mins. we got
a new one at Christmas and I notice that it doesn't seem to work any more
(to be honest I don't remember off hand if it was working that way on the
other one). One thing it DOES do (that it didn't with the other monitor)
is after the screen saver is on, it will automatically turn the screen back
on (at the time when it was SUPPOSE to shut it off..screen comes back on),
which stays on for the 2 mins (which is what I have it set to) before the screen saver activates,


Why won't the screen saver just stay on and the monitor just shut down.

Didn't you post this earlier - though I see there have been no replies so far? The posters in this newsgroup are all volunteers from around the world. It can take 24 hrs or more for the right person to see your message and respond. You need to be patient. If you haven't had a response in several days then repost indicating in the title that it's a second post. And have you searched for possible resolutions using google?
