Turn off the monitor and input block

• 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.

• Whenever I have turn off my monitor, and then turn it back on, all my desktop icons are completely reorganized.

  This issue just started.  Whenever I have turn off my monitor and then turn it back on, all my desktop icons are completely reorganized.  This happens when my system goes into power saving mode, or whenever I have turn off the monitor.  Even if I turn it back on just 5 seconds later, all of my icons are not where they were previously.  Help!

• Should I turn off the keyboard and bluetooth mouse off?

  Hello

  I'm new to Apple products and have recently purchased an iMac with keyboard and mouse compatible bluetooth.  The are a switch on each accessory to activate the bluetooth on or off.  Should I turn off after closing down to save the battery power or not this wear simply on the switches.  Not sure if stop actually stops transmitting wireless accessories, or if the latter uses the negligible power when the computer is turned off.

  Yes switches turn off the wireless, and yes they use negligible power when the computer is turned off.

• All lights on screen Flash - Message - Please turn off the printer and turn it back on

  I'm fighting a problem for a few weeks now with all the lights on the display starts flashing and the message please turn off the printer and turn it back on.   HP sent me a new printer that does the same thing.  The printer is an Officejet Pro 8600.  My computer is Windows 7.  I use a Belkin 750 db wireless router.  I talked to the service the customer several times with no results.  Did a hard reset of the printer, change the SSID of the router, because I think that one of my neighbors has the same router.  The thing most effective I did was change the channel to 6 which will operate for several hours until the display starts to Flash again.  Channels 1 & 11 starts blinking after a few minutes.  I know there are other people who have had the same problem.  I'm about to throw the thing in the trash.  My last printer brand X was set up the same way with no problems.  On the network, there are 2 iPads, smart TV, and an iPhone.  Need help please!

• What is the order to turn off the constraints and index

  Hi, I need to make some out of constraints and indexes on tables to load quite a date in them. I know that I can just drop them and recreate later. But is it feasible to figure who forced and in what order must be do disable or unusable before a load and after the load that is to say. without dropping to preserve? R before P data loading, and then P before R like I think that controls can jump in evertytime and are quite safe to deal with. But I did not carefully think about more, maybe you have some scripts that say exactly what should be the order to turn off the coast and later on this subject.

  Thank you!

  That's right: disable foreign key constraints before disabling the primary (or Unique) key constraint correspondent.  When you reactivate them, re - enable the constraint of primary (or Unique) key before the corresponding foreign key constraints.

  Aside from that, the order should not issue.

• HP t610 turn off the monitor

  Hi all!

  We have a series of WES 610 thin, agent image 5.1.983, 4.5.3660.161180 version.

  We leave tour monitor forever in power with an administrator account management options. But when connected with the client user account shut down the monitor after 15 minutes (factory settings). With the user account, it is not possible to set power options and the system not inherit the settings of the administrator account. Any suggesttions to set never turn off the screen to also with the user account?

  TKS, Carmelo

  TKS for the tip!

  We have tried all your suggestions, but the second and third didn't work.

  Only the first seems to be applicable.

  We have copyed the powercfg on the client and then run the command window by using the credentials of the user, in this way, we were able to change the right key in the active power scheme.

• How can I turn off the monitor (e.g., "standby") via the command line at the push of a button (or any other shortcut need not additional software)?

  Hello

  I don't like it when, after a break from work on my PC, the screen turns off as set up through "Power Options" in the control panel. That's why I put the relatively high threshold.
  However, when I know that I will not need the computer for a while, I want to save energy and wish the mode "sleep" could be activated immediately. Turn off the screen is not an option, because it has a USB hub built-in - off completely would be to unplug any connected device. Usually, if the computer has always works and might need the resources connected.

  Ideally, by pressing a button (or start a program or something), the screen would immediately go in mode 'sleep'.

  On systems prior to Vista and 7, IIRC, running a command in the sense of:
  Rundll32.exe user32.dll, SendMessage (HWND_BROADCAST, WM_SYSCOMMAND, SC_MONITORPOWER, 2);
  would do the trick. The dll should run the command to set the monitor to sleep. We could create a shortcut or even integrate the command in a batch file, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work on Vista or 7.

  Does anyone have an idea on how to do it on Windows 7?

  I would strongly try to avoid having to install any additional software to help me. (There is quite a little all about, even free applications that promise to do exactly that, but I want to avoid them if possible.) "And I can't believe that this basic that could be done on XP cannot act more on 7!).

  Thank you for your help,

  Hello

  Sleep is one thing and switching Off the Display is quite another.

  I found a way to turn off the screen in case you don't have a hardware switch or a keyboard shortcut as in my Dell Inspiron laptop (Windows 7).

  Create a batch with the following script file:

  echo off

  C:\Windows\System32\powercfg.exe-changer - monitor-timeout-dc 1
  C:\Windows\System32\powercfg.exe-changer - monitor-timeout-ac 1

  START/min/Wait C:\Windows\System32\scrnsave.scr s

  C:\Windows\System32\powercfg.exe-changer - monitor-timeout-dc m1
  C:\Windows\System32\powercfg.exe-changer - monitor-timeout-ac m2

  with the idle time to turn off your screen set in the Control Panel, replace m1 and m2.

  Control Panel > Power Options > any 'Active' diet Plan > change Plan settings > disable the display setting (minutes).

  For example, in my computer laptop m1 = m2 = 30 and 10.

  Now create a shortcut to the batch file and optionally assign a keyboard shortcut and an icon.

  Explanation of the script:

  The first two commands sets the idle time Display Off for the minimum possible setting of 1 Minute for the AC and DC (battery) power. The third command put the system mode blank screen saver 'instantly' and / Wait for the screensaver to terminate application. After 1 minute of inactivity, the monitor turns off power completely.
  The Saver screen/Wait is over by the event of the reactivation of a movement of the mouse button, the last two lines of code will come back the idle time-out settings of origin defined in the Panel view. This to ensure that after waking up, the display does not Turn off all 1 minute of inactivity expire.

  Kind regards
