Answer 1

try going to control panel....display....screen saver. click on the power button and set the monitor to never

Answer 2

Right click on your desktop
Properties
Screen Saver tab
Click the Power... button
Check out the Power Schemes tab
You should see something like : Turn off monitor : After 5 mins.

Simply change this field and click OK

Answer 3

May be almost time to replace it.

Have you checked to see if you have it set to turn off in 5 mins?
Is your screen saver set to start in 5 mins?

try for 30mins on screen saver, and about 40 or so for monitor, and see what happens.

Answer 4

Sounds like a screen saver, power management maybe.

Answer 5

Hi,

Change your Screen saver settings by right clicking on desktop.
Either you can make it 1 hour or none.

Answer 6

if you monitor power button goes to orange it sounds like your pc goes on standby

Answer 7

I would try to unpug your moniter totally, (save all files first.!) then if that doesn't work you might need a new bulb for it. If that doesn't work email me at [e-mail] and I can get you more answers fast.
