Hello, I'm experiencing problems with my 3-monitor configuration. My monitors have started sleeping after roughly half an hour, which is affecting the display positions. All power settings remain disabled for sleep, yet they still go to sleep. I'm unsure where else this behavior could originate from, and none of them are using eco mode either. Please help me figure this out.

You don't have your GPU manufacturer, but you can likely configure a sleep timer. Look at the Windows power options (both with and without power source). Also verify your UPS software if applicable. Some BIOS settings let you set a sleep timer for displays. Check each monitor's configuration again just to be sure. Other configurations exist in screensaver settings. It might be that a black screensaver is active. Review the event scheduler and remove any suspicious scheduled events. Also, examine alarms on the clock. If monitors still intend to sleep, try booting from a USB drive and see if the behavior remains consistent. Good luck!

I used an ASUS ROG Strix 2080 Ti GPU. My desktop has Windows with power settings turned off for hard drive and displays. I own an MSI Meg, but nothing appeared in the BIOS regarding display sleep timers.

The default sleep configuration is located on the screen. Which devices are you working with?

There is one monitor, the Predator XB273, paired with two Asus VG278 models. The eco settings on both displays are disabled.
