Windows 10: Monitor/display will not turn off

Exact same driver causing the issue here.

 

Very similar issue here - however it can be solved temporarily by restarting the machine. After a while, the displays will stop going to sleep. I don't have the same HID driver listed as above.


Is anyone else able to get it to work temporarily by restarting?

 

VERY nice find! THANK YOU ALL *Smile been driving me nuts last week... for me it was same driver but for Razer Onza (Xbox 360 controller). Weirdly enough the controller seems to work with this HID thing disabled... as does screensaver (using Blank) after 10m and turning displays off also after 20 minutes. Now someone tell this to MS to fix it.

 

Unplugging my Logitech Extreme 3D Pro fixed my screensaver/monitor turning off issue. Very odd that this is the cause since it was just sitting there not moving.

 

Thanks for that. I tried so many things.

The worst was a weird non related issue: Safe mode didn't have the issue, but "Safe mode with networking" had it. So I never tought about the keyboard. Mine is a blackwidow btw.

 

OMG finally! This has been driving me insane. For me; in the device manager/Human interface devices i disabled: HID-compliant consumer control device, HID- compliant game controller and HID- compliant vendor-defined device and boom, my monitors sleep again. Thank you all so much. (ASUS P8Z77 V-Deluxe, Intel i7-2600k, MSI GTX660 Ti, 8GB Corsair Vengeance)

 

I got it!!!! I tried disabling all the HID compliant things in Device Manager and it was the White Board causing the problem. I left it disabled and enabled everything else. Blessed silence from my display. Thanks for the hints!

 

I have got similar problem. I have disabled HID compliant items in Device Manager with no luck.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

 

Monitor/display will turn off again

After you run this software: Download Destroy Windows 10 Spying - MajorGeeks

Windows can't sleep because it is spying continously. There is nothing wrong with drivers.

 

Have tried the above with no success.

Any other suggestions.

 

When you ran the program, did you see a bluescreen with all the redirections in the host file to 127.0.01?

Here it works on all 3 computers.

 

I ran program with no problems everything seemed to work but still monitor/display will not turn off.

For your info I did see a blue screen with all the redirections in the host file to 127.0.01.

Any further help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

 

Can you manually shut down your internet connection and see if your computer goes to sleep. If not, then you have another problem and it is not the hidden activity of windows 10.

 

Restarting has solved this problem for me - at least for now. I will see if/when it recurs.

 

I have manually shut down internet connection and it still monitor/display will not turn off.

I understand problem is probably not the hidden activity of windows 10 but I still need to find a solution.

If anyone has any further suggestion I would appreciate it.

Thank you.
