omg i have always been having it go off after 2 minutesat nite and it is supposed to scan at 8 am every other daybut i just got to thinking that would it still do this if monitoris off? and you said no wow i am glad nothing hashappend so far yikes (Ihope) cuz that is what i have beendoing i thought since all i have to do is move mouse a litteto start it up again then the scan would work too. hmmwell then i better do a stand by instead thanks alot- I think you are confusing the monitor being on standby, with the computer being in hibernation mode.
What you described (moving the mouse to turn the monitor back on) suggests that your monitor was already going onto standby mode and when you move the mouse returns to on mode. This would not happen if the computer is in hibernation mode (well unless you have a Wake on Keyboard/Mouse option on, which i doubt.
Just answer this question and i can tell you for sure. When your monitor is 'hibernating', is the power light on your computer still on? If it is then your monitor is on standby, if it isn't then your computer is hibernating.Message Edited by MrDoom on 11-07-2006 10:21 AM
