I purchaed a new KDS LCD display and I cannot get this thing to go into standby (orange) mode. I have triple checked the BIOS settings and have DPMS support enabled. I have also checked the Power Management Options in XP and have the screensaver set to come on in 2 minutes as the "blank screen" and the Shut Off Monitor to come on in 15 minutes. The screensaver works, but 13 minutes later, no standby!! Im at a loss, an I own my own computer repair business, LoL.
I have the Sapphire x1800XT PCI express video card and the standby did work with my Viewsonic CRT monitor. Also the newest ATI 7.7 Catalyst drivers Help!!!

What happens if you connect the monitor to a PC that is off?
If that gets you into power management mode on the monitor then I would suspect that it is your system.
If the monitor stays active for more than a few seconds connected to an off PC then it is defective.
