Shutdown/startup problem
I have kind of a weird problem that went back to the Windows 8 days as well
When I shutdown from my desktop, I have no problems when I start up again. (I'm the administrator if that makes a difference).
When my wife shuts down from her desktop and I try to start up again, no signal gets sent to the display. I don't know if Windows just doesn't load up or if does, it's just not sending a signal. It doesn't seem to be asleep, because the normal things I do to wake it up (press spacebar or power button) don't work.
Anyway, if I force the computer to shut down and start it up again, it works fine, and logs straightaway into my account (not hers). Again I don't know if it makes a difference, but I do have the computer automatically log me in on startup.
Any ideas on what the problem is and how to solve it?
