Looking at the settings, they're still there, too; something about running the BOINC screensaver or the SETI code is blocking the power-management monitor shutdown. ID: 1592 ·

I always thought this was a windows problem. Setting the blank time in the screensaver to something longer than the monitor power time seems to help a bit.

I had the default 0 (and go to blank screen not checked) there for BOINC, so I've changed that, and we'll see. Thanks for the suggestion! ID: 2099 ·
