Monitors turning black

[Ergroilnin]

Hello,

 

recently (around 2 to 3 weeks) I've had this issue... Everytime I leave my pc on idle, say just displaying a static page, after like 10 seconds both of my monitors stop showing anything, but they are indeed still on and the backlight is working as well (I can tell, because my secondary monitor has one stuck yellow pixel and that is still visible even after the issue happens). If I do anything actively, or even semi-actively like having a youtube video playing, the displays are completely fine.

 

When it does turn "black", even the slightest movement of the mouse is enough to immediately light it back up (like less than a half a second). I do not have any hibernation or sleeping options turned on either and the issue started happening all of a sudden, I do not rememeber any Windows update or any driver update and I certainly did not change any HW in that time.

 

Does anyone possibly know why this is happening and how I should fix it?

Thanks.

When were things working well ?  You can run a system restore and go back to a date things were working fine.  You will not lose any data however you might need to install apps you installed in these last 2 weeks.  good luck.
