    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.

    Pc wont turn on

    I'm sorry to hear that your PC isn't turning on. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

    1. Check the power source: Make sure your PC is plugged into a working power outlet and that the power cable is securely connected to both the PC and the outlet.
    2. Test the power cable: If possible, try using a different power cable to see if the issue is with the cable itself. Alternatively, you can try using the current power cable with a different device to ensure it's functioning properly.
    3. Check the power supply: If your PC has a separate power supply unit (PSU), make sure it's switched on (if applicable) and that all connections from the PSU to the motherboard are secure.
    4. Reset the power supply: Sometimes the power supply can get stuck in a "protective" state, preventing the PC from turning on. To reset it, turn off the PC, unplug the power cable, and hold down the power button for about 15 seconds. Then plug the power cable back in and try turning on the PC.
    5. Check for hardware issues: If the above steps didn't resolve the issue, it's possible that a hardware component is causing the problem. In this case, you may need to consult a professional technician or contact the manufacturer for further assistance.
    Remember to prioritize your safety while troubleshooting. If you're unsure or uncomfortable with any of the steps, it's best to seek professional help.
