[QUOTE="hoobastank68, post: 1090758, member: 167290"] Hi I've been using a samsung monitor [url=http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/office/monitors/premium/LS23WHUKFK/ZA/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail]23? Widescreen LCD Monitor with LED Backlight PX2370 - Premium - Monitors | SAMSUNG[/url] for EXTERNAL Monitor for macbook and it works well. 1) It worked perfectly with "Insomnia" + "Caffein" app so my LAPTOP never sleeps. 2) However I had turned on "EXPOSE" so my laptop "MONITOR" + "EXTERNAL MONITOR" goes to sleep when i want it to, without shutting down laptop. 3) When I return to my DESK< All I do is MOVE MY MOUSE and my monitor comes back on. [B]This wasn't a problem when I used the mini to APPLE DVI Converter[/B] However recently i decided to get [url=http://store.moshimonde.com/hdmi-adapter-1.html]Moshi Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter[/url] a try. It works well in HDMI but now problem arise 1) If i put my monitor to sleep for more than 10-30 2) I return to my desk and move my MOUSE or KEYBOARD Click 3) External monitor (Samsung) doesn't respond. Only way to get external monitor working = to close it/power off then power on again. Before it would just auto- come back on. Any idea how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated, as I GAVE AWAY the DVI** Adapter, thinking this HDMI would work better :( [/QUOTE]
