Hi, my second monitor that I have just setup keeps going to sleep around 5 minutes after I restart my PC. My second monitor is connect through a HDMI to VGA adapter and my first is through DVI only but both are plugged directly into my GPU which is an AMD R9 390 Saphire Nitro
 
Solution
I think I have found the solution, my GPU didn't have enough power to support high intensity games and a second monitor so I have increased the power limit and it is now fine.

My power settings are all off when it come to sleeping, I have now narrowed it down to when I launch games after around 5 minutes it flickers and then turns into a sleep mode but wont wakeup.
