i've set windows to turn the screen off after 1min of inactivity. as soon as that happens it comes back on again. it displays a little box saing: input: dvi. any ide how to stop this from happening?

i've got a benq g242hd. and ati radeon hd 32 graphics.

any help greately appreciated.

does not sound like an OS thing. sound more like a screen setting to display what input its taking display from. check your screen settings.

I'm sure it is set to say that. But it shouldn't be getting any input, if Windows has turned off the screen.
