Dual monitors not waking from sleep

Hi all,

I'm having issues where my monitors won't wake from sleep in a dual monitor setup. This only occurs after waking them from a sleep state, and they work fine when booting up my PC from scratch.

I have tested both monitors in a single monitor setup and the issue goes away completely as they wake from sleep just fine when only using a single monitor. This issue only seems to occur when using both monitors simultaneously.

I have tried the below steps to no avail to remedy the issue:

• Changed the DisplayPort cable
  
• Uninstalled graphics drivers with DDU and reinstalled them again
  
• Made sure Windows update was completely up-to-date, including any optional drivers
  
• Made sure there were no unknown devices in Device Manager
  
• Turned Link State Power Management under PCI Express in Power Plan settings to off
  
• Completely formatted my PC and reinstalled Windows 11
  

None of these steps have resolved the issue.

Any assistance provided will be much appreciated!

 

Change theme after attaching monitor to laptop

Hey there,

Is there anyway to change the theme used automatically after attaching a monitor? What I'm really after is changing the wallpaper folder from one with a bunch of single wallpapers to one with my dual monitor wallpapers.

My setup currently is I have a laptop (2560x1440) and at work it gets placed on a dock and I use my dual monitors both (1920x1080). It would be awesome if the wallpaper folder automatically change depending on weather monitors were attached or not. Right
now, if I care enough, I manual change the folder.

Please let me know if there is a better solution, or if this is just fantasy.

Thanks!

 

Surface Laptop 3 with external monitor

Hi All,

Has anyone come across an issue with an external monitor blacking out while connected to a Surface Laptop 3? I have the laptop connected to a widescreen laptop with the Surface Dock. Both work fine however, once every hour or so the external monitor blacks out and comes back.

I've completed the following:

• Updated laptop drivers and firmware
  • Updated monitor drivers
  • Swapped out monitor
