Whenever my Acer Predator XB321HK gets ready to go into sleep mode it starts flashing red, green, blue, yellow and white. Just started yesterday and I can not figure out what's going on whit it. If I move the mouse it wakes up but won't go to sleep anymore. Any idea to what would cause it? Connection through the DP on my Nvidia 1080Ti. Thanks!
 
Are you on Windows 10? Because the Creator's Update recently pushed out has apparently been giving people a lot of grief, including issues with displays going into sleep mode. I would install the 381.65 driver if you haven't yet.
 
Yeah, Windows 10. I'm not sure if it pushed the update yet. I'll take a look when I get home.
 
It says Edition: Windows 10 Pro Version: 1607 under "About PC". I have the latest drivers installed.

edit: Found the problem. In the monitor settings Burn In Mode was turned on. Turned it off and it goes to sleep as it should.
