Problem Possible Cause Solution HP Display LiteSaver doesn't turn off the monitor screen. The Activity Extension time has not elapsed. The default Activity Extension value is set to 10 minutes. The HP Display LiteSaver will wait to detect no input or movement from the keyboard or mouse for 10 consecutive minutes after the Display Off time has passed, before the monitor enters into low-power mode. For example, if the Display Off time is set to 5 minutes from the current time and the Activity Extension is set to 10 minutes, the HP Display LiteSaver will not actually turn off the display until 10 minutes of inactivity has elapsed, even though the Display Off time is 5 minutes from now. The HP Display LiteSaver may not be compatible with the computer system. Some notebook computers are not compatible and the monitor power can not be controlled. Confirm that the HP Display LiteSaver is compatible with the system. 1. Right-click on the HP Display LiteSaver icon in the system tray. 2. Select Power Off Display from the menu. The monitor screen should turn off if the system is compatible. To turn the monitor back on, wait 5 seconds and move the mouse.

The monitor is off but it did not seem to enter into a low-power sleep mode. The monitor's power saving control is disabled. Check the monitor's OSD menu setting for power saving enable/disable controls. The control should be set to enable to allow the monitor to enter into low-power modes.
