I have a HP Pavilion DV6 6053ea laptop, i recently got a Dell external monitor, after a while of not using the laptop the external monitor goes black but the laptop fan still spins.

I have enabled (Win key + 'P') external monitor

Is there anything I can do to make the laptop go to sleep like it would normally with no external monitor ?

  • what if you try to put the comp to sleep from start menu, (not waiting), and you try it with the monitor connected. Does it work, or fail?
