I'm a bit puzzled.
I just had one old monitor replaced with Benq XL2420Z @ 1920x1080x144Hz, the second monitor is Benq GW2400 1920x1200@60Hz. Both are connected to XFX 290 by dual link DVI cables. Power settings in windows did not change, monitors turn off after 15 minutes of inactivity, but only the new monitor wakes up properly. The older Benq just says "no signal".
I can hear windows device connect/disconnect sound when I unplug and plug the DVI cable from it, but image comes up until I reboot the computer.
 
it might be the firmware on the monitor that is causing it to not wake up from sleep. does the monitor only get back signal if you power it on then off again?
