Question Computer sleeps, wakes up but screens don't turn back on

I have not yet. I might give it a try at some stage. Ah well, that explains it. My computer can successfully turn on and off :tearsofjoy: At least it restores the programs I had open, so it more or less does what I need.

Question Computer sleeps, wakes up but screens don't turn back on

So, at first, I was able to get 3-4 resumes from sleep after turning fast boot off. However, the issue has returned again. Additionally I tried: Installing the driver updater from AMD (installed all available drivers). Deleted partitions / Formatted all my other drives (everything is empty...

Question Computer sleeps, wakes up but screens don't turn back on

Good to know, thanks! It might possibly be resolved now. I found fast boot enabled in the settings. I've turned it off, disabled hibernation and restarted (and confirmed it's still off). I also re-enabled waking via BIOS (instead of OS). It's turned back on successfully once now. Going to test...

Question Computer sleeps, wakes up but screens don't turn back on

Thanks for your reply! Yeah, it's such a pain. I have noticed from Googling that there are a number of users on MSI forums (I have MSI mobo) that they have sleep issues with expo / pbo enabled. Tried disabling both but no luck. I may even resort to replacing the motherboard if I still have no...

Question Computer sleeps, wakes up but screens don't turn back on

Hi all, I've had a myriad of sleep related issues with my system (sig) many of which resolved when I did a clean install of Windows Pro 11 5-6 months ago. However, I have a new sleep related issue I haven't encountered before (or often). When the computer sleeps, it does so successfully but...

Question Advice on new Liquid cooled workstation -- safe temps?

Thanks for the info. If three CCDs are at 32c and one is at 67c, would that mean the average temperature is maybe in-between that? The GPUs are a part of the same loop as well (they don't exceed 42-45 under load). Right now, no. It's usually a burst for 5-60 minutes, but if I wanted to do some...

Question Advice on new Liquid cooled workstation -- safe temps?

Hi guys, I've got a new open loop liquid cooled workstation (Threadripper 24C-48T, 2x RTX A6000). I like the system to be quiet so I've set the radiator fans to run at 30% at 45C (113F) or less. Temps of 60C (140F) will ramp the fans up to 50%, temps of 70C (158F) will ramp the fans up to 70%...

Question MSI Godlike x670e - disable sata ports

It's a Noctua NH-D15, and a 4090 and a 3090 Ti :disrelieved: Opening it up is a nightmare. Can't easily remove the 4090 either as there is no easy one button release (crazy for the price of the motherboard). So for me to get access it's: remove CPU cooler then 4090. If it had the one button...

Poll: Do you care about ray tracing / upscaling?

So, I've found that the upscaling is critical for high resolutions -- so I think it's great tech. I have the 57" G9 Neo (7680x2160) and on ultra settings, without upscaling, it's 30-50 FPS in most games on a 4090. Upscaling can push that to 90-120 FPS depending on the game and I'd say the...

Question Advice on how to achieve failover with current network setup

Hey, I currently have a residential connection and a starlink connection. I also have a backup 5g sim as well. I have two switches and another ethernet cable which plug into the router (currently using Netgear Orbi, but switching to Ubiquiti Alien). I'd like to achieve failover where it uses...

Question MSI Godlike x670e - disable sata ports

Correct, I have three NVME and one SATA drive in the system. I couldn't disable either, but nevertheless the workaround worked.

Question MSI Godlike x670e - disable sata ports

Unfortunately they are all nvme, so it involves removing two GPUs, CPU cooler, repasting, etc., it's like a 4+ hour job. I went down the rabbit hole trying to get it sorted but I did in the end -- formatted unused Linux PC, installed Windows on that (easy access to side panels via SATA), put...

Question Samsung monitors turn on and off repeatedly

I see. As far as I am aware, the monitors are set to specific sources and the auto detect new input option is turned off. Correct, two different cards with two monitors connected to each. From memory, it's one G9 in each card (HDMI) and one Ark in each card (Display Port).

Note: The feature is in Windows, I forgot to mention that. It is off for now. When I shut the primary monitor off while at the lock screen, the second turns on :(
