flickering

for some reason my monitor never goes to sleep like its supposed to. also, if you have it on the lock screen or something you can notice that it periodically flickers (kind of like its refreshing), its not the monitor because it does it on both of them, im assuming the two are related.

also, it doesnt happen on a fresh reboot, and from what i can tell theres not a single program that i use thats causing it. anyone have any suggestions?

Try changing the refresh rate perhaps?

the flickering isnt the problem, its the fact that my monitor doesnt go to sleep. its kind of annoying if i forget to turn off my monitor before i go to work or sleep. wastes power, monitor dies quickly, and it causes burn in on my secondary monitor because its a crt.

also, its not constant flickering, its once every 2 minutes or so at regular intervals.

try posting in /g/:

Then what the fuck is this channel for? Are you trying to set a new www.opera.com like meme?

Seriously, if we don't provide support, what will we do? Create 1000 "your logic is retarded" or "Intel vs AMD" threads?
