Hey guys.

Recently my monitor has been acting strange and at random times going into sleep mode. One time it happend after the computer froze and i rebooted it, another time it went into sleep mode when i plugged a hdmi cabel in from my tv.
Now it just happend after i cleaned the computer and put a new wireless card in it.
But so far I have been able to make it go away with just not turning on the computer for 5-6 hours. But its getting annoying as hell for sure, any ideas what could cause this?

Btw the graphic card is a radeon 6850HD and my operating system is windows 7.

UPDATE:
Have tested it with my laptop and the monitor works fine with the laptop through VGA...

Im almost 100 % sure theres nothing wrong with my graphic card though.. when i plug the DVI cable into the computer the monitor still gets "powered" by the computer, but then says no signal and goes into sleep mode...

UPDATE:
Now the computer/monitor starts to freeze every 10-15 minutes...

Thank you :)

The reason for your problem is that some sofftware accidentally disables some services related to your monitor function. A perfect and final solution for your problem is to recover your system to factory condition or simply reinstall the operating system. This will surely solve your problem.
