    Monitor Switching off

    Locked

    by thatdarnpc ·

    Our monitors are switching themselves 0ff by themselves at differing times. Power saving settings etc are set for never, running Netware 4.11 with 3.21 client. Is there a netware fix or could this be a monitor problem

      There are two settings, one in Device Manager and one in the CMOS. Next time you boot, press or whatever is required to enter CMOS setup and check that Power features are disabled there also.

      Just because it’s set to “Never” doesnt mean that power saving is going to leave you alone. In Control Panel > Display > Screen Saver > Power Saving look for “Advanced Settings” and make sure that you change the default power down time for the monitor (and possible HDD) since the default in Never is 15mins and 1hour for the monitor and HDD respectively

        The given suggestions had already been applied; that was the meaning of “Power saving settings etc” meaning I’d tried the obvious solutions/fixs.
        What I forgot to mention was that these shut-offs only started occuring after the install of the new client (3.21) on the machines.

      This is not an answer, but an acknowledgement of the same problem. We always set our workstations power management to never and disable it in cmos. But I had it happen to own workstation yesterday. Went into the management applet and it was back to 15 min. And I use a password protected screen saver(for when I am away from my desk) and it had reverted to none, in the display properties page? Go figure! I also have the same 4.11 / 3.21 setup.
