This is why the no signal displayed on the TV stops showing and shows up again after a second. If that display is set as a Active Display the Video Card will send a acknowledgment signal each time, causing the displays 1 minute no signal timer to keep being reset. But because the Display tries to find a signal also by Disabling/Enabling the HDMI Input Port every 10 seconds, causing it to Disconnect/Reconnect to the Computer. Sense no Sleep Signal is sent to the display, the display keeps tring to find a signal, which with this HDTV it should turn off after 1 minute of no Signal being found. This is because most Video Card Drivers are made to not send a Sleep Signal to displays detected as a HDTV. This even happens with Normal Computer Monitors that are connected with a HDMI cable. For all i know this whole problem could have nothing to do with the TV, but rather something with nVidia's Drivers not allowing the HDMI/Mini HDMI Connector on the Video Card to correctly be put to sleep by Windows.Īfter doing some looking around, I've found this problem to not only be with this HDTV but with most any Display connected with a HDMI cable of any type even a DVI-HDMI one, as the Video Card detects the display as a HDTV.

If the TV is set to a Active Display though when Windows goes into Power Saving Mode and puts the Displays to Sleep, it causes the computer to play the Device Disconnect and Reconnect sounds every 10 seconds, never entering standby/turning off as it should.Īlso i don't know if it should or not, but when using the HDMI-Mini Hdmi Cable like i am the Computer Settings Options on the TV stays greyed out like it doesn't know its conneccted to a computer. Once every 10 seconds for a minute, and then the TV turns off as it should. If i uncheck the TV as a display to be used in the nVidia Control Panel, the computer then plays the Device Disconnect and Reconnect sounds 6 times. Which it only does if the TV is not set as a Active Display. Which with using a HDMI-Mini HDMI cable as its a Mini HDMI connector on my Geforce 460 GPU, id think it would do what it says for a HDMI-DVI and turn off after 1 minute of no Signal. If your TV does not turn on when you “wake” your computer, press (power) on your TV or remote control.įor HDMI-DVI input from PC, the TV will enter Standby mode after one minute if no signal is detected.' 'When the computer enters Standby mode, your TV turns off. I don't know if its the fact im using a HDMI-Mini HDMI cable to connect the TV to my Computer or what that is causing it to not enter Standby Mode or Turn off when theres no Signal as it should.
