Alright people, I am running Vista build 5456 right now and I have a really strange and annoying problem. When I turn my monitor off for an extended period of time (lets say an hour or more), when I get back to the comp and turn the monitor on, my system is frozen.
By turning the monitor off I mean pressing the power on/off button on the monitor itself.
If I leave my monitor on, and don't touch the comp for an hour or more, when I come back the comp still works....
I turn off my monitor to save energy and there really is no reason for it to be on when I'm doing other things, but now I have to leave it on if I want the machine to still work when I get back to it.
Any ideas on how to fix the problem? Thanks.
