    Display won't Sleep


    I am unable to get my display to turn off per the settings I have in Windows 10.
    Setting now are:
    High performance
    PC sleep - never
    Screen saver - 7 minutes
    Turn off display - 20 minutes

    Is there some factor that causes the display to stay on?

    Try updating the driver for the graphic card.

    No card... graphics on MOBO. Latest Intel software.

    Just a hunch here.....set your performance level to balance, reboot and see if that makes a difference.

    Red light just went off........Turn off screensaver. Screen saver keeps the monitor active and it will never go to sleep mode.

    Screensaver is OFF. Now the 'sleep' seems random. Sometimes it sleeps and others, not.
