    Monitors turn on by themselves I have my monitor off set to 5 mins. See below! Please help


    I have the monitors set to sleep at 5 mins but not the computer. I set this in the windows settings. They turn off after 5 minutes of inactivity, with the computer still running and playing music in the background but then they turn on again. Following another 5 mins of inactivity, the monitors sleep without turning on until I move the mouse or hit a keyboard button. It's driving me crazy and I cannot figure out what is going on! Why do the monitors come back on and then stay off after the second 5 minutes?I updated all drivers and Bios but I still have this issue. I also set pwr to balanced
