Before I installed Boinc my computer would power down the 3 monitors (screen goes black, power light becomes amber) after 15 minutes (as set in WIN10 power configuration.
After installing Boinc the words Boinc screensaver flash on the screen and then it goes black (actually dark grey), but the monitors do not power down.
Upon hitting a key the screens all become white and then the content is displayed appropriately.
I'm getting tired of (sometimes) remembering to shut off the screens manually.
Any suggestions ?
