Kieth Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) For some reason, at exactly 15 minutes, power is turned off to my monitor. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the screensaver, because whether set at 5 minutes or 30 minutes, nothing changes, or with Power Management, whether turned off or on, nothing changes. I've checked through the various logs, but I didn't see anything that allowed me to understand the problem. Ideas?
