Hi,
I have my PC's power setting set to 'PC going to sleep after 30mins of no action'.
And usually when it goes to sleep, all I have to do is press a key or move the mouse or press the mouse button and then the PC 'wakes up' and I need to type in my pass word.
Today, though, I could not get it back, no matter what I did, the screen stayed black, even when I turned off the PC completely with the power button and when I hit the reset button I got no screen. The monitor is ok, its power button light was on, it just did not receive any signal.
Then I pulled the power plug on the PC (I had to go to work), and when I got back home, I turned on the PC and it was back to normal, but apparently it had still not booted down (eventhough it was disconnected from electricity) and it came back to the same screen I was at before this happened (same windows/programs open).
Isn't this very strange?
If anybody has an idea what could be the cause of this, I'd appreciate any kind of help!
Thanks,
Lars
