    Computer screen turns off while I'm using it


    My computer will often turn off while I am actively using it. It doesn't completely shut down, but the screen will turn off as if it's gone to sleep. It will wake up again if I move the mouse but I have to re-sign in and it gets very annoying and shouldn't happen while I am actively interacting with it. For example, it happens even if I'm moving the mouse, typing, watching something, playing a game or anything. Also, once it has happened, it will continue to happen each hour.I have turned all the power settings to never turn off the screen or go to sleep but the problem still occurs. Restartin

    M-Audio M-Track 2x2 Not Recognized by my computer.

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We appreciate the research and troubleshooting you have done, this issue could be from the software end or from the hardware itself.



    Please try few of the troubleshooting below to further eliminate the root cause of the issue.



    1. Try to connect the device with a different USB and check if that helps.
    2. Connect the M-track to different computer and check if you still face the issue there, if the issue persists, it could be caused by hardware.




    Method 1:



    1. Press Windows + R key on your keyboard together, and type
      control printers.
    2. You will see list of all the devices and printers connected to your computer.
    3. Click on Add a device and follow the onscreen instruction and add your device.


    Method 2:



    1. Uninstall
      all the M-Track drivers
      from device manager.
    2. Reboot the computer and check.


    Method 3:



    I suggest you login to the manufacturer site,
    download the drivers for your registered device
    and
    install it.



    If you still face the issue, I suggest you to get in touch with the
    manufacturer and get the hardware checked once.



    Hope it helps.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

  4. Computer screen turns off while I'm using it

    Unable to turn off On screen keyboard on Windows 10.

    Hi,

    To assist you better, I would like to know the current build installed on the computer and the troubleshooting step that you had already performed.

    As an initial troubleshooting step, try to turn off the OSK by following the below steps:

    • Select “Start” and select “Settings“.
    • Choose “Ease of Access“.
    • Select “Keyboard“.
    • Set “On-Screen Keyboard” to “On” or “Off” as desired.
    If the issue still persists, I suggest you to download and install any pending updates that needs to be installed on the computer through Windows update and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.
