The computer screen does not turn off after the specified power Options

I tried several ways on trying to turn off my monitor of my laptop through the options of food and the use of some applications such as nircmd but nothing works every time. I'm sure it can be a program I am not using a device. I have a wireless mouse plugged into a USB port, but I know that's not what is keeping the PC awake, as always happens when it is not plugged. The thing that bothers me is I don't know how to identify this process shut off and I tried to put end as many process I can safely or those that I am knowledgeable in the subject to close. I would really like this feature back. Thanks in advance for the answers and ask if all the details are needed.

I understood what was the 'problem '. It turns the screen of my laptop never turns off if my laptop is installed on a sloping surface, because it assumes that I'm working on it. When I went to bed my laptop on a flat level surface, is power does work normally, as reduces the brightness of the screen to the bottom, then turns off after a while. I guess it must be a form any a single function on my laptop. Thanks for all your answers.

  • Light (switch) on my screen does not turn off. I have to shut my computer down several times a day to turn off the monitor.

    Light (switch) on my screen does not turn off.  So, I shut down my computer and restart several times a day, because when I put it in mode 'sleep', he wakes to the top in a few minutes and will not fall asleep.  I could put a blanket on my screen when not in use, but I'd rather find a way to make it stay asleep when I tell him.

    Light (switch) had already done once before and I was so worried that once I turned off the monitor that I would never get it new on... a bit short of money here, to buy a new monitor, but the next day, I pressed the power button with an additional downward pressure and I could so he could start working again (able to turn the market monitor).  It was about 3 weeks ago.  Now, the light stays green, unless I stop the whole computer.

    Maybe my main problem is sleep mode, which removes the screen for like 2 minutes and then he wakes up to the top and is so rude when I myself and try to sleep, I just turn off the monitor everytime I put the computer to sleep.

    Now, I can't turn off the monitor, except by turning off the computer.

  • IPhone 5 s screen does not turn off when it is plugged in to the charger.

    Hi all

    I use Iphone 5s from the last 4 months. Recently I came across this situation. Sometimes I see screen only turns off when its plugged into the charger. After a few hours of mobile will be turned off. Sometimes I manually press the power button to turn off the screen.

    Please let me know how to solve the problem.

    Hello there, Manjunath K P!

    Thank you for joining the communities Support from Apple! Looks like you're having a problem getting the phone to automatic locking. I know that I want my iPhone did not stay when over and have the screen lock correctly. You can, of course, that your Auto-Lock is set up correctly. Your range of choice of automatic locking from 30 seconds to 5 minutes before locking the screen, or you can choose never so that it does not lock. To change the settings, tap the settings icon, click the general button. Tap the AutoLock option and choose your preference.

    If these steps do not work, and you still do not see the iPhone Autolock when you're in charge, you can go to settings > general > reset and then press reset all settings. This removes all the data. For example, if you have 16GB of music, videos and photos, this option will not remove. What this does is actually reset some of your settings to factory default. It is not a complete withdrawal of the parameters. It deletes all of your preferences for Wi - Fi, Bluetooth, do not disturb, Notifications, general, sounds, brightness & wallpaper and privacy.

    Once that is done, go ahead and try to set the automatic lock again and see if it works.

  • Treo 600 screen does not turn off

    Usually my treo 600 stops automatically after 2 minutes, but at times it stays on and I can't turn it off by pressing the power button.  The only way I can turn it off is by doing a HotSync first. It's OK when I'm home with my computer, but can't when I'm away from the computer.    Someone knows how to fix this?

    You can try a reboot to hot 10 seconds and see if that corrects the problem. Remove the battery for at least 10 seconds to leave the Treo powerdown completely, similar to a stop on a PC.

    If this doesn't resolve the problem, then a hard reset is the next step. The hard reset will erase all data on the device both hotsync before resetting.

    Here is a link to copy and paste into a browser for the hard reset procedure.

  • Monitor may not turn off after setting the screen turns off after a period of inactivity

    Original title: control screen does not turn off

    My cell phone 6 year old runs today to Win XP Pro and IE7 and Firefox. My screen has been set to turn off after 15 minutes, but these days he keeps any. It stays ON all day.

    Attempted to solve by setting to turn off in 10 minutes, but it makes no difference, what could be the problem?

    TIA

    First of all, you don't want to do the hardware updates through the Microsoft Update Website.

    Secondly, there are a couple ways you can do this:

    1. go in the Device Manager (start > Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management > Device Manager).    tedious, but this way you are sure.

    Double-click each item, having developed each sign, select the driver tab and choose Update driver, let windows search automatically, make sure that you are connected to the internet.  Do this for each item that you want to search for updated drivers.

    2. go in the manufacturer's website. For example, I use a Dell Dimension and move the driver Dell downloads Web site.

    If you mean hardware upgrade from Microsoft (not Windows which is software) you would search Microsoft.com site for driver downloads.

    Hope this helps, after back with your results, please.

  • My computer does not turn off, it crashes on closing.

    My computer does not turn off, it crashes on closing.  I have to press the Start button, in the hold, and then after 20 seconds it turns off.  Often when I turn on the next time, it sometimes says Windows is not stopped successfully, but I know that all my programs had been closed.

    My computer is Dell and my package is Windows Vista.  I have McAfee security set up and I bought Uniblue to try to help, but not joy.

    I wouldn't use anything done by Uniblue, it does not work. It will make things worse.

    I would like to uninstall Mcafee, and then use the removal tool to remove it completely. Install rather program AV from Microsoft.

  • Display does not turn off when attached to the ear during a call

    When you hold my iPhone 6 up to my ear during a call, the screen is not turn off and disable the buttons. The sensor is not broken, because the auto brightness works very well. It is just inside the calls when he won't work. Is there a setting to turn off the screen when you hold it to my ear?

    The proximity sensor and ambient light sensor are two different things. The fact that your ambient light sensor works you says nothing about the functioning of your proximity sensor.

    You get a deal on the phone? A screen protector? If so, remove them and test again. If the screen does not always dark, you may have a hardware problem.
