  1. Laptop goes to sleep as soon as display turns off despite being set to never


    Hello, I have an Asus ProArt Studiobook 16.Fresh install of windows 11, all drivers up to date. I like my computers to stay on constantly when they are plugged in so that they can run programs in the background or be accessible via remote desktop at any time. No matter what power settings I change as soon as the computer shuts off the display, it goes to sleep. I would like the display to be able to shut off with the laptop still running as it's an OLED and I don't want to burn in my screen. Doesn't matter if the laptop is plugged in or unplugged, it goes to sleep whenever the display is shut

    :)

  3. Computer display goes to sleep quickly despite sleep settings

    I'm having trouble with my computer going to sleep too quickly. I currently have all the sleep settings set so the screen won't turn off or go to sleep for 2+ hours. Despite this, my computer screen goes to sleep after about 5 minutes of inactivity and seemingly disregards my settings. Why is this happening/how do I fix it?

    For reference I have Windows 11 Enterprise version 22H2.

    Display settings not saved when laptop goes to sleep

    I have a new Dell Inspiron laptop connected to two old Dell monitors that I've configured for extended display. I can get everything set up exactly the way I want it, but when I "wake up" the laptop after it has gone to sleep, the display settings are often not retained. Sometimes the second monitor displays the login prompt rather than the main monitor, and when I log in, the monitors are in mirror mode rather than extended mode. I can fix it by restarting the laptop, but I would expect the settings to be retained after the laptop goes to sleep, since they're clearly retained after a restart. Any suggestions?

    Thanks!
