I have searched quite a lot already but unfortunately didnt find any solution or hint yet. My problem is NOT that my computer starts/boots itself from standby mode. For this often discussed problem, there exists the commands powercfg -devicequery wake_armed
and powercfg –lastwake
.
But for me, the problem is, that when I press "Energy saving" in windows, then my monitor immediately goes black, but my computer keeps running. How could I find out what is causing this issue and which driver/software keeps my PC running? I only installed a new nvidia driver and some windows updates lately, and I disabled Windows 8.1 fast boot mode, nothing more.
Thanks in advance
EDIT:
powercfg /requests
showing NONE everwhereVLC only in portable mode, so not running in the background
powercfg -energy
not showing any entries which say "preventing from sleeping"No print spooler entry, no Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service
I also tried
powercfg /requestsoverride driver srvnet System
as an admin, but didnt solve the issue eitherHOMEGROUP --> Dunno, because I dont have any other computers in my network. Never used network stuff here.
WHAT TO DO NEXT???
