    PC turning on but not displaying


    My pc is not displaying the red lights on the motherboard turn on and off left to right top to bottom. The bottom right light remains on. All the fans seem to come on but that’s it. Not sure what the problem is.

    Display does not turn off when pc is idle

    Just did all the suggestions. Did not work. Display does not turn off.

    This issue was from the beginning when I downloaded Win 10. I had Win 8.1 and the display always turned off as I set it.

    My pc is HP Pavilion Touchsmart 23 all-in-one. According to "checking for updated drivers on display and monitors", I always get the response that the drivers currently installed are the correct ones.
