if it is a desktop
monitor, then it
likely turned off
when windows
powered it down.

most are designed to
conserve energy and
turn off but pressing the
power on button will
enable it.

however, if you are talking
about a laptop lcd panel,
then maybe the manufacturer
included a specialty power
management program or a
method unique to their hardware
designs.

in most cases pressing
a space bar or pressing
a combination of keys
can enable the monitor
again.

sometimes pressing
the "fn" and "brightness"
keys together can turn
on a lcd panel of a laptop.

the details are surely
provided by your laptops
manufacturer.

Dell XPS M170 laptop -- but no details.

I'm setting the Monitor Turnoff parameter in Power Options -- under Windows
XP Control Panel.

How do I turn the monitor back on?

Also, if I set Hard Drive Turnoff and System Standby options can I continue
to download a large file with those settings?

If configured merely press a key on your keyboard and the monitor will
resume.
After hibernate you must use power on button.

Is there a trick to configuration for monitor wakeup?

What are the salient differences between Hibernation and Standby?

I've never seen a clear technical explanation of that.

Many Thanks.

Power is not shut off in standby. The monitor displays nothing, and all
programs remain in memory.
In hibernation all programs in memory are written to disk and then power is
completely turned off.
When coming out of hibernation the programs stored on disk are reloaded to
memory so the system is
exactly the same as it was before hibernating.

So, as long as a file is being downloaded the system will remain in standby
and not go into hibernation?

You cannot be in sleep mode if you are downloading. Sleep mode turns off the
monitor and drives.

Thank you kindly.

So in standby mode the drives are turned off and one cannot download?

I seem to have a mode where the monitor turns off but downloading continues.

What's that called?

I was going to tell you ----do not confuse the monitor going off as a
standby mode.
The monitor can be set to turn off any time the computer is not getting
keystrokes or
mouse movements. The monitor going off is merely a way to conserve electric
power
and was great with CRT's.
Computer can be doing a lot of work and the monitor can be off. (Such as
downloading).

GOOD!

That's what I want:

Monitor off but all sorts of useful work being done.

But to turn the monitor back on just moving the mouse doesn't seem to do it.

I have to push the power button.

What are the pros setting for times for:

1. Screensaver on

2. Monitor off

3. Standby

4. Hibernate
