Got a new HP 2311xi monitor today which is replacing an LG monitor. Used it for a few hours and I go to dinner only to come back to a monitor that won't come out of sleep. With my old monitor, or any monitor I've ever owned, I only had to move the mouse or touch the keyboard and it would kick right on. When I do this with this monitor, a message pops up saying it's going back to sleep. Only way get the display back on is to reboot the computer.
The monitor is connected to the computer by a dvi cable which is connected to a display port adapter. No other video connections available on the computer.
Any suggestions?
Looking around I noticed under the monitors menu there is a power saving setting as well as a power - on recall setting. Could the power saving setting be interfering with the computer's power saving settings? Should I try disabling the monitors power saving feature and see if it solves the problem.
