    Screen does not actually turn off.


    Hi there,Since a little while ago I've noticed that my screen does not actually turn off or go to standby anymore but just turns black, even though I have my settings set to turn off the screen, and my screen saver should be turned off.Added to that, it doesn't do so consistently, sometimes my screen will actually go into standby mode, but other times it does not.I was wondering if this could be the work of a virus keeping my computer from truly going into standby mode, or whether something else is causing this.

    :)
