   Hey bud. I need some help. My screen is set to sleep after 45 minutes. However, it will not wake from moving the mouse. This is what happens. I shake the mouse to wake screen. The screen changes from black ( asleep ) to gray. I can wake by pressing control alt delete then hit cancel. What gives. This is the new rig I built. I am using a xfx radeon r7770.

Shane:
Explain a little more.

It changes from black to grey, anything on the grey screen?

Also do you have the system set to go to sleep or standbye? How about the hard drives going to sleep?

I'm using your set up for power options MaxBattery/Performance. I am only letting it put the screen to sleep after 45 minutes though. Screen goes black (sleep)after 45 minutes like it should. When I go to wake it by moving the mouse, it wakes the monitor up but the screen is gray, nothing more. I have to then press control alt delete then the screen returns to normal and I press cancel to get rid of control alt delete options. It seems the keyboard will wake it with Con+alt+del but the movement of the mouse doesn't quite do it.

Anything for the screen saver enabled?

Reason why is when the screen goes to sleep it should be just turning the monitor off into stand bye, it doesnt change the screen. The only times the screen changes is with a screen saver or going into sleep or hibernation.

AT least that what it is suppose to do lol

no. I did use to keep it on MaxPerformance though. Would there be any difference between both settings to cause problem or what I perceive to be a problem.
